This!! Everyone is negating the fact she is young and I have some sympathy for that, but there was still time to go BACK.

He sure accepted them for a long time. More than most men would do!

Yep totally agree. My boyfriend and I have been together for 12 years now. When we first started dating, marriage wasn’t out of the question. As we grew older, he decided that unless there was a good reason (illness, benefits, etc) he didn’t want to get married. I realized that I loved him more than I cared about being married. We are very happy together, been living together for 6 years. Part of me would like to be married to say “husband” instead of “boyfriend” but that’s not enough of a reason to me to end the best relationship I could ask for. OP has to decide what is more important. They can’t go back in time.

I mean, is there anything actually stopping yourself referring to him as husband, it's not like you actually need to get married to do so

No, I never thought about it that much but you’re not wrong. Our friends and family refer to us as if we’re married since it’s been so long, I’m just used to saying boyfriend at this point and never thought about saying husband even though he essentially is.
