My boyfriend (24M) and I (24F) have been together for just over 6 years now, since we were 18. We have made some pretty big moves towards our future recently, such as putting a deposit down on a house and being promoted in our careers. We have been together for 6 years and practically act like a married couple (without the titles), we share finances and go on family holidays together, and both our families love one another. I have started to get a little sick of my boyfriend tip-toeing around the concept of proposing and getting married. Bit of a background to this - while i was away at university, we spoke about a proposal and he said it would be when i finished university.. this was 2 years ago and since then he has promised me for 2 years that he would propose. Now it's getting to the point where I am saying to him i don't care how it's done i would just want to be engaged to be married in a year or so. He constantly says how much he wants to marry me and create a future where we are our own little family, but every time i ask him what's stopping him he just says he doesn't know? i thought the whole nervousness around proposing is not knowing how your spouse would react but at this point i am practically begging for a proposal.

Because of this i have given him an ultimatum of either he proposes by the end of the year or i want to break up. AITAH?
