The risk of it is... "what happens when there's another guys who she can share more parallel interests with her." Either she's worth stepping things up for, or she's not.

But I say cross that bridge when you get there (or its your call if you want to pre-empt it)
I agree that there is no obligation to really rush into anything more, but if she's aiming to settle down, I would say that you do have an obligation to very seriously consider a future with her. It doesn't sound like she's hoping to mess around for 2-3 years, then break up and find someone else. If that's what you have in mind, just because you have 'no obligation', then you're a jerk.
