I do want to (well, I'd be fine with us jumping right to being married), but I got the feeling from him that he wants to be the one to ask. Even though he's SLOW AS HELL.
Will that also be the case between proposal and wedding? Because you're part of this too. You don't have to be 100% on his taking-his-time schedule.

Oh, crap. I just remembered how much his dad will lose his shit if we don't get married in a church. Ideally, the Catholic church. Super ideally, HIS freaky parish which teaches things like Your Salvation Is Dependent On Getting Your Children To Come Back To The Church (THIS Church).
...huh. Staying shacked up actually seems WAY better in the face of that.

He'll get over it. I suspect my parents have seriously glossed over in their memories all the drama they caused during my sister's wedding (to the Old Black Muslim). Threatened to not come, etc....but in the end, no priest, no Catholocism, and they were there, paid for some of it, and these days act like he's just fine by them. (Insert serious eye-roll)
If he got over the divorce, and the up-shacking...
I wonder if you go to Vegas to elope, is there a Batman chapel? I would be so down for that.

Heh. Fair point. I think in his mind, he's just biding his time and playing a long game to get us all Catholic and whatnot again.
I love how I started out lamenting that Tim didn't propose, and now I'm suddenly planning my drive-thru Vegas Batman non-Catholic elopement.
Hey, I can legally marry people! You could come to SF or meet me in Vegas and we can create our own BatChapel.

I'd suggest calling an Elvis chapel and asking if they know Batman.
Hey, get married by Batman
and
Elvis!
(Friends of mine got married in Vegas by Elvis. It was lots of fun.)
Not drive-thru but [link]
