Relationship Dilemma Question #2
Picture It: You have been dating your mate for at least a year but you are not feeling fulfilled within the relationship. You decide to call it quits with your mate. You call up OMAR/SANAA  and invite him/her over for dinner. At dinner, you are trying to work your way up to your break up speech when SUDDENLY your mate PROPOSES TO YOU -- yes marriage!!!
What is your response? What do you do?
A. "Naw Omar/Sanaa. While the ring is all of that my love for you is not."
B. "OH BOOOOO!!! Yes!! YES!! I'll marry you and love you forever. OOOO I need to call mamanem and all my girls and my boys and stuff."
C. OTHER
WHY??

Tell the truth about how you're not feeling him/her, but don't hurt his/her feelings.

I'm pretty sure there won't be a way of NOT hurting his/her feelings.

Re: Relationship Dilemma Question #2
C. I would decline at the time but give him my reason. If this person truly wants to marry me and spend the rest of his life with me, then he should make an attempt to change in the areas that I'm not being fulfilled. I'm not going to settle for someone who can't fulfill the needs that I have in a relationship.

I'll have to choose A
A.
I'd try to be as nice as possible about it, but I'd still have to tell him the truth. If I was ready to break up with him, then no ring, regardless of how many carats it is, is going to change the fact that I am unfulfilled.
If anything, accepting it will only delay the inevitable. Eventually, the effects of such a fine piece of jewelry will wear off and I'll still be unfulfilled. I'd rather save myself the time and call it quits like I had always planned to do.

I agree with novella000, I would have kicked him to the curb long before he popped anykind of question. Just being real. I know me, and knowing me for real. I doubt that I would have even gone that long as to have him come over for dinner.

C. If I felt that there was a need for me to "Move on" from a relationship, an engagement ring would not change what I was feeling. For me to get to that point, something must have happened or been wrong; after I've done some serious prayer and I've reached my threshold -there is no need for me to waste my time and continue on with what is not working. Time is more precious than anything, if we're not compatible before we marry we won't be after. We would only be fooling ourselves and make the situation worse -where we both would be hurt in the end. When you continue to try to make something work that is not "In the Master's plan". You can never receive your blessing until you let it go. Once you make your decision don't second guess yourself, because when you constantly have the "What if's"? You can never have closure and be everything God wants you to be. Move on and don't look back!

It would be A but in another way. I would be really thankful for the love but Sanna would not do it for me

Re: Relationship Dilemma Question #2
How big is the ring again...
I would pick B. Its very important to get you needs met. If they aren't being met now, its a good chance they never will.
