Hi Dreaming715,
As a 29 female myself I related to your post and wanted to share my opinion. I think that you see getting married as a solution to your problems, but I would like to share a different perspective. You are very lucky to have a boyfriend who loves you and you just recently moved in together. I think its the time to enjoy that and not to push him into getting married too soon. Maybe he wants to see that he can still do his own things when you live together. Maybe you should too find some hobbies you would like to do in your free time. I understand that your friends dont have that much time, I have sometimes the same problem with my friends, but I tryto find things I can do on my own and learn to enjoy my own company. I´m in a different situation then you, I recently broke up wiht my long term boyfriend, but in that relationship I relaised that I am the only one responsible for making my days interesting and fun, I cant expect someone else to fill all of my time. I dont know if this is helpful or maybe I misunderstood your problem, but I think you should just let things be for a while and let them unfold at their own pace. Enjoy what is and other things will come, and you maybe happier when they come and you didnt force them to happen.
