If you have been exclusively dating the same guy for a while, it's only natural for your mind to start conjuring images of your dream wedding, and what your future children will look like.

Hopefully, you are both on the same page, but if he isn't ever going to pop the question -- and that's a deal breaker for you -- it's important to find out before too much time passes.

Here are 5 surefire signs that he isn't the marrying kind:

• He Comes Right Out And Says So: This is an important conversation that needs to be had in any long-term relationship. If he says he never wants to get married you need to take him at his word and not hope that he secretly changes his mind one day. It's not fair for either of you.

• He Always Chooses To Hang With His Guy Friends Over You: It's perfectly natural to spend time apart with friends, but if you two have plans and he breaks them to watch the game with the guys time and time again with very little notice, it's pretty obvious the relationship isn't that important to him.

• He's a Work-A-Holic: If he puts his job before you than his job is most definitely a priority over marriage. So even if this guy would tie the knot -- would you want to play second fiddle to his work?

• He's Been Married Before and It Ended Badly: An ugly divorce can turn even the most romantic person away from the idea of marriage.
