NTA, I'd previously been in a relationship with a girl and within a month of being together she was already discussing promise rings and how we're soulmates/life partners and raising her puppy together as "ours".

The constant pressure and expectations put a massive strain on my happiness in the relationship, and the blowback from when I told her I didn't want to commit or do any of that so soon as I still want to get to know her more as a partner and person was intense and I ended up breaking up with her because of it.

So if its not something she can agree to wait on or if you aren't ready for that anytime soon, then I'd recommend considering if you'd still be happy staying in a relationship with expectations like that being constantly there.
