Am I Waiting on a Proposal That’s Never Coming? #HMAY Ep. 265

PRE-ORDER FATHER YOURSELF FIRST TODAY!

What do you do when the man you love keeps hitting pause on the future you planned together?

💍 After six years—three long-distance, three living together—a listener’s boyfriend still hasn’t proposed or started premarital counseling. She feels more like a roommate than a partner, while he insists they’ve “gone backwards” and need to fix their foundation before moving toward marriage. Now she’s wondering: is this a season to rebuild… or a sign it’s time to walk away?

We talk:

💬 "When a man says ‘not right now,’ he often means ‘not you.’” – Glen breaks down what “not ready” really signals about a man’s heart and leadership.

⚖️ How living together before commitment can blur standards and stall clarity about the relationship’s direction.

❤️ Why comfort can replace pursuit—and what women lose when they stop being chosen.

🧱 Yvette’s reminder: “You can’t fix the foundation while living in the house.” If it’s shaky now, marriage won’t steady it.

🙏🏾 The difference between hoping he’ll grow and accepting he’s not growing with you.
