My boyfriend and I have discussed getting married and having children. He wants us to wait until we go on "one more vacation". I don't want to wait, as we both are in our 30s. How should I go about handling the situation? Please help me have a meaningful conversation without an argument.

When you've been married this long, you need a ticker to remind you.

Also food for thought? You tend to get a little more of a response if you provide a more thoughtful intro here

thats easy give a definite date you want to be engaged by, married by, have kids by, etc... men tend to need timelines or they'll drag their feet.. Ask what his timeline is... don't just settle for "one more vacation".. thats not a timeline unless its already booked. Figure out what you want to do first... if you want to get married before getting pregnant then start by when you want to be engaged by. Talking to a boyfriend about babies is generally a "some day" conversation. but all of a sudden even once we were engaged he was fine talking about it as a "real plan".
