Sometimes you meet a person and know that you are gonna end up with them, while other times, it might take you years to realize it. Each person, however, has their own views about marriage, and while some are only too enthusiastic to get married, some flat-out refuse.
Just like the original poster’s (OP) partner—whom she has been with for the past 5 years—who refuses to give any commitment, whether it be marriage or anything financial. In fact, he also states that he would never leave her any inheritance if he passed away, even though she pays his mortgage!
