Dr. Zoe Shaw, A Year of Self-Care

Why Hasn’t Your Boyfriend Proposed Or Set the Date? with Dr. Zoe Shaw – 180

Why Hasn't Your Boyfriend Proposed Or Set the Date? with Dr. Zoe Shaw - 180

At Grit and Grace Life, we receive a ton of questions from women who are at a crossroads: They’re in a relationship with a man who didn’t propose, or seems to be dragging his feet when it comes to getting engaged or married. Because another holiday season and Valentine’s Day has passed and there are some women who didn’t get the proposal they were hoping for, we’ve decided to bring back a classic podcast episode.

Dr. Zoe Shaw joins Darlene Brock and Julie Bender to share her insight and provide some guidance for women who are wondering if it’s time to walk away from their relationships. Dr. Zoe identifies six ways to determine if your man is really interested in the long term; signs that indicate marriage is no longer on his mind (if you’re a forever fiance); and how to emotionally remove yourself enough to view the relationship with honesty and clarity.

It’s not an easy place to be, but we hope this episode encourages you to see your relationship for what it is and make the best decision for your grit and grace life.
