Been dating my girlfriend for 3+ years and it's time to

why does it have to be a big deal? the important part is that you teo make a promise to each other to get married. you don't really need a ring for that (or atleast not an expensive one) and you also don't need to throw a big party. getting engaged doesn't have to cost a single $

What's the point of getting engaged if you don't have enough money to get married and start your life together as a couple?
Sort your life out.

get hitched and impregnate asap
no matter which way the cards break, its always better to "seal the deal" so to speak...

Talk to her about it and make plans how all of this would work out from her point of view OP.

With Math/CS you should have it relatively easy to find a job OP.

Good luck.

I'm laughing at the thought of you squatting in a tent as your ex-wife lives off child support cash and spends her free time with Chad and Tyrone. While your son who you will hardly ever see listens from the other side of a thin wooden door. Sucker.

Do you know you can propose to girl and have marriage in like two years later?

If you are dirt poor, just buy two cheap stainless rings, promise yourselves to be faithful and wear rings until you manage to become enough rich to throw classical wedding.

Also in this way you can test her how she will behave when you are for granted. Some girls show their true colors only after she is certain you wont leave / live togethet long enough. In this way you will be even able to run away in case she will turn fat, crazy and gating sex.

Cheers!

Hey dude better to do it when your poor get a a real cheap ring im sure u can get a zirconia one for like 100bucks. Get hitched at a registry dude. Man i waited till i had money and it was a fucking waste. Weddings dont hav to be all glam. As long as you and your partners sincere. I wanted a cheap wedding but my wife wanted a flash one my dad said give ya future wife the day she dreamed of. Man he give me shit advice. It was expensive as fuck for poeple i dont like anymore(wifes family). Do it now if ya family gets behind ya you can pull something off.

>She's the one, end of story.
Oh boy..

Proposals in movies don't really happen except in the USA it seems? Either way, getting engaged doesn't require anything and if you've been ''talking about it'' technically you're already engaged. So there. My fiancé's brother got married in his appartment block's backyard with my fiancé as the celebrant with chinese plastic rings. If you want to go cheap, you can. If you want a ceremony and everything, I suggest you wait to have a salary so it won't put needless financial stress on you both.
