i can understand your situation - some of my friends went through something similar. and i know this is a difficult situation to be in.

are both of you of marriagable age? i'm wondering whether maybe she's too young and confused to make a commitment?

is there a mature christian whom you can talk to? like a pastor or someone who conducts premarital counselling in your church? it helps if you can share the details with someone who is able to advise you on relationship and marriage matters.

i don't know what your friend may be going through - probably some personal struggle. pray for her and give both of you a "deadline". talk to her, or come to a mutual decision by then. it's not wise to drag such a relationship indefinitely.

ask yourself too whether this is really the girl you want to marry and why. pray and talk over it with a pastor or elder whom you can relate to. if you are sure that she is God's will for you, then wait for her to sort out her personal struggles. but again, i suggest that you give yourself a deadline. if she is not responding, then maybe this is an indicator that she is not God's will for you.

remember to trust God. sometimes He wants us to wait for the right person who will come at the right time.

hope this helps.
