Ring
Let me know if I’m being unreasonable or not.
I’ve been with my current partner for over 4 years. I feel like I’ve damn near begged for a ring. Well he bought a ring last February I believe. Everyone knows he has it. He’s talked about it with me. I hint to him all the time about it. It’s nearing a year he’s had it. Am I crazy for thinking this man hasn’t put anytime, effort, or even felt it may be a good time in a YEAR to propose? We have a kid together. I don’t want to rush him but it’s causing some resentment because, a fucking year? I just about don’t even want it now. I can’t say I’ll even feel any positive emotions when it does come time.
The lack of effort sums up our relationship but he swears he’s trying 🙄

How do you know he bought a ring, have you seen it with your own eyes?
Most guys who are wanting to propose will do so very shortly after buying a ring. Certainly not waiting almost a year after the fact! 🤦🏽♀️
It sounds like he’s testing you for whatever reason in his mind, before proposing. If he ever does at all. Which is insane given you’ve already had his child and been together for 4 years. He may also be influenced by his friends who behind the scenes may be egging him on to keep testing you.
All I will say is he’s probably very comfortable right now getting wife treatment from a girlfriend, free sex on tap and free maid service, so he has zero incentive to get married.
Have a serious conversation with him. If you want to get married find out what his excuse is. If he makes up nonsense, then you know where you stand. Your choice then is how important is marriage to you? Because there are plenty of guys who would marry in a heartbeat. You don’t have to settle.
