6 Ways to Convince Your Boyfriend to Delay Marriage Plans
4. Tell him that the fun in your lives will disappear
You can delay your marriage plans by convincing your boyfriend that getting married will mean the end of all the fun in your individual lives. He will have to cut down on the amount of time he hangs out with his friends, he won’t be able to stay at his friends’ place on the weekend and he will have to cut down on partying. All these things will give him an indication that all the fun times in his life will come to a complete standstill if you both get married right now.
5. Tell him that your parents want you to wait longer
If you can’t find any excuses to make your boyfriend delay your marriage plans, just tell him that your parents want you to wait a bit longer. Tell him that your parents think that it is best if you both wait a few more years before tying the knot. Talk to your parents beforehand and ask them to take your side just in case your boyfriend wants to talk to them.
6. Use the excuse of studying more
If you really have plans to get another degree, you can use it as an excuse to delay your boyfriend’s plans of getting married. Tell him that you want another degree in your list of qualifications and that it is very important for you and your career. This will give you a room of at least a couple of years depending on the duration of your coursework.
