Re: Engagement Issues
I don't think the guy is trying hard enough (from what is told). If the guy really does want to marry her, he would talk to his mother & persuade her that he likes this girl & wants to marry her. Then his mother & the girls mother can be in talks of how to proceed...or at least to get to know each other. I agree with giving him a timeline & see if he follows through.
but by the looks of it the mother is not too keen about this marriage or the girl.
