Just a response to some of people's comments:

The first thing that pops into my mind is kids. Do you want any... because I would venture a guess that (as someone said above) has "been there, done that" and probably doesn't want to go down that road again.

I actually don't want kids myself. He has two daughters from his previous marriage and while I wouldn't be adverse to having a role in their life, if this relationship were to last long term, I wouldn't be wanting him to commit to having children with me. I have had plenty of people tell me that I will change my mind when I get older, but I have always known that I am not meant to have children of my own. I have always planned to be the 'cool aunt' and let my brother have all the children
So to find a guy that has already accomplished what he wants in that aspect of life, would really suit me just perfectly.

I think you should enjoy yourself, but I would not entertain thoughts of marriage for at least a year, and I'd recommend a year engagement (assuming you're thinking long term).

That is exactly where I'm at - the thought of marriage really hasn't even entered my mind. Right now I'm just enjoying the time we have together. Though on the same token a girl has to think a wee bit rationally, and if I didn't think I could ever see myself with this guy long term then there would be no point in continuing the relationship, so I have thought about it, but only to the extent that I can see myself with him - way in the future.....
