If you are certain that the purpose of your relationship is to determine whether or not the two of you are compatible for marriage, I would suggest premarital counseling - sooner than later. If that is your goal, why wait to work on your future? Brett and I started counseling before we were engaged. It's good to get it all out on the table, you know? Then you have a better idea of whether or not your problems are workable, and you have a mediator to keep things from exploding. If that idea scares either of you, you might just want to take a break again. But honestly, the whole back and forth thing is potentially breeding insecurity in your relationship. Set your course and follow it through, and don't let some idealistic notion of how long you should date before you marry get in the way of what God has for you. I knew a girl who went out with a guy for 7 years and then they broke up! There comes a point when you just have to jump in the water or get off the diving board. I'm not saying go elope tomorrow. Just go get some
