I have been dating my partner for 2 years and we moved in together about 6 months ago. I am in my early 40s and she is in her mid 30s. Since meeting her, I have been upfront and honest about not wanting to get married. Marriage simply isn't important to me. I don't like being the centre of attention and I also worry about getting financially "ruined" in the event of a breakup. I have significantly more assets than she does so there is greater risk to me. We would get a prenup if we went this route but I heard that they are not bulletproof.
About 6 months after moving in together, she kind of had a meltdown and asked me if I would do it for her. She also said that she would need to reflect to see if she would be okay with continuing the relationship in the event that I chose not to marry her. I see this as an ultimatum, even though it did not directly come across that way. I'm at a loss about what to do. I love her but feel pressured into marrying her.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
Thanks
