Perhaps I'm just abnormal, but I don't see marriage as anything that somehow gives a person the right to alter the other person into some mold.
If she's hangin around to get married so she can mold you into somebody else, why are you considering marriage? You're supposed to be with a person who loves you for who you are, not for who they can make you into.
The whole "My life is over" line is sickening. Why the hell would you trade who you are as a person just because you feel you owe it to her? That's the most disrespectful thing she could ever hear from you. So you're not proposing because you love her, but rather out of a feeling of debt to her hangin around. Yeah, that's why I'd want to get married.
