but to return to the OP, Dude, that sucks. but frankly, marriage shouldn't change anything except your taxes and maybe address. If there's any rockiness visible in the relationship -recent past, present or future, now is not the time. She may still be the woman for you, but not now. you're doing the right thing by backing off and holding. it does feel like crap. but soon it won't. and on the bright side, you're a bloke -you're not also dealing with the satanic whisperings of the biological clock
