London, March 10 (IANS) Reese Witherspoon's new boyfriend is desperate to propose to her but the actress has no plans to tie the knot in near future.

The "Legally Blonde" star is believed to be dating Hollywood agent Jim Toth since February. Contactmusic.com reports that Toth's ex-girlfriend has revealed he is looking to settle down with the 33-year-old.

"He is not looking to casually date, he's looking to get more serious. He's a nice guy, but he can be needy and is definitely looking to settle down. He lost his father about a year ago and that made him want to get married," said the former girlfriend.

Witherspoon, however, has no plans to walk down the aisle.

She split from actor Jake Gyllenhaal in December and was previously married to Ryan Phillippe with whom she has two children -- Ava, 10, and six-year-old Deacon. She doesn't want to fully commit again until she is 100 percent sure the relationship will last.

"Reese got married too young the first time and she never wants to go through another divorce. She wants to take things very slowly," a source said.
