I recently got out of a long term relationship (3 years) during which he was never sure about us. I was overly patient and thought he would eventually decide - he had some past trauma that was impacting this. However, when it got to the point where I was moving for work and needed an answer (it was either move together and get married or break up) - he ultimately said he “wasn’t ready.”

Talking to some friends, it seems like often guys know early on (within the first few months) that they see a long term relationship with a partner. At what point should I expect this as a normal progression in the relationship, and essentially call it if they’re not sure? Obviously 3 years is too long. #lessonlearned My initial thought for a time is 1 year.
