OK, let me re-post but this time without the sarcasm.
#1 – Are you early in your dating career? Is he? If so, then 1 week is too fast. If he is a veteran and you are new to the game, (and he really cares about you) he should understand that you need more time to make a decision like this than he does because of the disparity in experience.
#2 – Ages? If you are under 20, (and presumibly, he is 23-24) you deserve a little more time to make a decision.
#3 – Date duration? Have you gone on an all day, afternoon date? Or have the been just 2 hours in a lounge date? If you’ve spent the day with him, and the time flew by, I’d say you have a winner.
On the other hand, if you are both well into your dating careers, or are both well into your 20s, hesitating may burn the bridge between the two of you. Either way, its a gamble, but saying yes puts a ring on your finger, while saying “I need more time” may give you more time than you bargained for.
Don’t think of it as being pushy; think of it as leadership quality
Decisions, decisions, decisions.
