It sounds like you're feeling a bit conflicted about this decision—on one hand, you want to meet her expectations and move forward with buying a house and getting married, but on the other hand, you're concerned about the financial strain and the practicality of managing expenses afterward. Is that right?
It also seems like there's a tension between your desire to wait and prepare more financially and her desire to proceed now. Can you tell me more about what these different perspectives mean for you emotionally? How do you feel when thinking about making this decision—are there fears, hopes, or worries that come up?
Understanding your feelings and priorities might help clarify what feels most authentic and sustainable for you in this situation. Would you like to explore what values or concerns are guiding both your perspective and hers?
