<human>: We've talked about marriage a fair bit in an abstract sense, and in the sense that it's something we both want down the line.  He was engaged and cheated on by his fiance before we met, so he's understandably hesitant to make the jump again.  Absolutely fair, and I totally understand.

My problem is that he's asking me to give up my whole life here to be with him.  I'd do it in a heartbeat, but his unwillingness to talk specifics about engagement/marriage worry me.  I definitely don't need a ring on my finger to make the move, but I do need to know that things are definitely moving in that direction.

Am I being unreasonable to outright ask him for that commitment?  How do I phrase it so that it doesn't come across as "buy me a ring now, or I'm gone"?

Can you provide a brief overview of the text?
<bot>: boyfriend wants me to drop everything and follow him across the country.  I want to, but need some more commitment first.  How to have conversation that doesn't sound demanding?
