I want to marry with my boyfriend but he is still not yet meet my expectations.

Hello, you are correct to wait before getting married. You might want to ask yourself these simple questions: Are you financially ready? Are you physically ready? Are you emotionally ready? And these applies to both of you. There are many aspects to a marriage. Love alone will not make you survive it. I posted a longer response a while ago but I was disconnected. I'll explain the questions in subsequent comments ;o)

It is better to marry someone who loves you, He will give you everything he has. To marry for the things you want, don't expect love

I want to ask when is considered the right time? The time is never right till your heart tells u so. Only u know in your heart. Most of the time is not right due to our mind thinking of it. Use your heart and u'll know if is the right time ya. Good things will come 2 those who wait. be patient before you come 2 any conclusion ya. Wish you all the best in your endeavours.

I believe your actually thinking the right way, I mean it's really best to think ahead rather than what you see at the moment. From the looks of it, your boyfriend doesn't seem ready to get married with you. He doesn't have to rush it, if you both love each other. I guess you could tell him that your willing to wait for him, and tell him that your also thinking for both of your future.

And one last thing. After thinking it all out, sit with your boyfriend and talk it out. Plan this together. After all it is the two of you are getting married. And start saving, if you haven't done that yet. By saving, you increase the chance of being financially capable to have a family and get that dream wedding you wanted. And if you both planned on getting married, then set a time frame. You may not make a specific date but set a goal: say, in one year or in two years. And start little by little with the wedding plan ;o) You will have all the motivation for saving if you are saving for something that you really love. Based on my experience, that works. When my husband and I decided to get married, we made a time frame of within the next year after we talked. We started saving and at the same time accomplishing those little details for the wedding. And we've been married for a year now and we don't have any regrets. ;O)

i think you should tell your fellings n he will accept you n you are doing right thing......

You shouldn't be in a rush to get married, and I think it's good that you want a solid foundation to build a marriage on. I have a couple of girlfriends who jumped into marriage with very nice guys who were making decent money but still forging their careers. When money problems came up, neither partner was able to deal with it. I don't think you're being selfish and I don't think you can be too practical about marriage. If you want to get married soon, why not work and help out with things like building your own savings account and sorting out your debt so that he doesn't have to take the entire burden?

My advice is wait for the right time. Economy crisis is still at large. Starting a family with out enough savings will make things worst. It's better to be financially stable before getting married.

I am like that before. But when you love someone so much you sometimes believe you could be able to forget those things you want out of life. I don't think it's being materialistic but rather being practical. It's not the things actually, it's what you believe in. Those things you want is necessary to sustain a family which you would eventually start and sometimes those things can be the reasons for future arguments. So if you think you're bf doesn't meet your expectations as of this moment, don't rush things, or you'll end up in some complicated situation.
