1. The two year rule: If a ring isn't on your finger after two years of dating, you need to move on and say, NEXT!

2. Any man who is upset that his girlfriend/wife is making more money than him is insecure. Move on and say, NEXT!

3. Sounds old fashioned-- but it's good advice. Never move in with a man without being married. Statistics have found that couples who live together have less chance of ever getting married, and those who do, fail to stay married at a greater proportion than those who have never lived together before marriage.

1. NOT. TRUE. Each relationship has its own timetable. For some people, 5 months is right. Others may need 5 years or more. ONLY you and your boyfriend really know what is right for you.

2. No comment. Tend to agree.

3. Personally, I would NEVER marry someone I had not first lived with. NEVER. Again this is something that varies from couple to couple.

there are NO hard and fast relationship "rules" that suit everyone. I echo Killarney Rose--enjoy your new job and your life. You're young. It will happen when it happens.
