So again, my advice is that after two years, it's time to move on if he won't commit. [/B]

I have to interject because this is driving me up the wall: After dating my current fiance for 2 years, neither of us had brought up the subject of marriage: I was only 22 at the time and still in school and not ready for that stage in my life and neither was he. Had I ditched him after 2 years I would not be marrying the love of my life in two months - we got engaged after 6 years!
What you are saying is a matter of opinion - maybe you can't wait longer than 2 years, but everyone is different and are facing different circumstances.
Also, in regards to living together before getting married, in Canada it is exactly a 50-50 split. 50% of people who live together before getting married don't get married and that is their choice, hence why the common law law in Canada was changed to only 6 months (or at least it was in BC); and if you live together before you get married 50% of people divorce and 50% don't - so there is no correlation there - again it is just a matter of opinion and your own circumstances...
