Marriage Has Become a Trophy
A wedding is no longer the first step into adulthood that it once was, but, often, the last.
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Interesting that marriage took place AFTER children were all born.
Probably a good idea, that way you can see how fertile she is and if her weight and stabilised moods return back to normal after births.
There is a fun questionnaire book that could have been in high school curriculums.Here's the title in case you want to try this with your lady Toad.

Interesting, but not interested in marrying the State or deal with anymore family courts or attorneys. Once is more than enough for me.
Yes. I'm never marrying either.
Just seen your influx of marriage and engagement and giving house keys related threads over past 7 months or so and recognise the pressure is on you.
There's questions in this book that are provoking and revealing, the way even an intended religious wedding bride would answer them. Yes, you mentioned you would concede a religious wedding in one of your posts- I was shocked but completely understand your pressure.
Its one thing to glibly discuss these topics on an internet forum with profiles from around the world and quite another thing to be the participant in the relationship living out the posts as you type them.
My suggestion of this book is my gift to you, that maybe would further help you, I bought this book myself for my own next LTR(just scratch out the word marry) which would apply and help me#relationshipconversationstarters

"Today, marriage is a much more central part of family life among the college educated."
To me, this really says that marriage is much more central to the blue-pilled lemmings who dutifully jump thru all the hoops that society expects them to jump thru.
And the atlantic being the woke trash that it is, they have to say that marriage is a heterosexual institution that should be transcended.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
