I need some help with this. I want to propose to my boyfriend, and he's only ever been with me. I have so much fear in my mind that he wants to experience more than just one person. I love him indiscriminately. He could not do anything to make me not love him. I'm afraid to propose though. I can't think of any reason he would say no, but I'm afraid all the same. Can I get advice on what I should say?

How old are you?
How old is he?
How long have you been together?
Have either of you been in other relationships previously?
Have you ever talked about monogamous commitment?

I'm 26, he's 25, we've been in a relationship for 7 years, neither of us have been in previous relationship, we are both devoted to each other

I think you should ask him if he would like to experience stuff with other ppl
No need to add the proposing detail.
Then God knows what after that but you will have a better grasp of how he feels.

Every man wants to sleep with other people.
But most men don't because they know it would hurt their partner.
Why do you want to get married to him?
If the reason is because you are afraid he is going to leave your or because you think he is no longer sexually interested in you, then don't propose.
Marriage adds a layer of red tape to your union that you may not need.
You should not do it because of fear.
You should do it for love.

I hate to nag, but I don't want him to be with other guys, I don't want him to experience other people. I honest to god love him, it would break my heart if he did that. I'm just afraid of so many things like him not being ready to settle down with one guy or wanting some other guy. My original question was how to ask him to marry me, but I guess from what you said maybe I should be asking something else like is he ready to only be with me?

If you love something, set it free.
If it comes back to you...blah blah blah
It sounds like you're really insecure.
That is not a good foundation for marriage.
Work on your insecurities with a therapist.
Try and get some confidence.
And before you hire a skywriter to pop the question to him, maybe talk to him about your relationship and get a feel for what his answer would be.
You don't want him to laugh at you when you're down on one knee and say "Fuck, no!"
