Some people just aren't ready to make moves to live up to your expectations. Trying to force someone into a situation that isn't their choice can have explosive consequences. You can't convince someone s/he would be a good husband/wife just because you want to get married and settle down. The direction of your life can't revolve around what you think someone else should do or be because it would benefit you. You'd be better off making sure you live up to your expectations of yourself first. If they're not ready to make moves, it could be because what you show them about you....You Ain't Ready!
From time to time, I like to showcase writing from my Facebook friends. Basically, people will make moves when they're ready. You can't force someone to move when you say move or that'll cause resistance. Take the husband & wife example. One spouse pressures the other into marriage when the reluctant spouse may not be ready. Maybe they see something in you that they don't like, and would rather exercise caution before they jump up and marry. Marriage is a serious responsibility not to be taken lightly. Why do you think the divorce rate is so high? Many couples rushed into marriage without taking the time to get to know one another. You're talking about spending the rest of your life with this person, so there's no way you can know in 6 months-1 year if (s)he is for you. When it comes down to it, a lot of people "aren't ready". Some take longer than others to get ready, but when they do...it's smooth sailing.
