How long did you date before enagaged?

[Tiffanya21]

We started dating October of 2007, got engaged December 2009, and will be married on our 4 year anniversary October 2011.

 

We just knew too. We were "seeing each other" for about 3 weeks. When I say I was seeing him, I maybe saw him 3 times in those 3 weeks. haha. Then we ended up in this terrible incident where my FI was jumped by about 10 guys. He was hurt badly. Only our 2nd date technically. I was so worried about him, I stayed over for the first time and took care of him. I never left after that. I slowly started moving my stuff over, until we had to move to accommodate all of my stuff. But we loved every moment. I have had other very serious relationships, and like you said, none were like this. He had never lived with someone else, until me. We just meshed so well that we were like two peas in a pod after that one night. Love him to death!

Well I didn't read every post but I must have everyone beat. I dated my fiance 14 years before he proposed and it will be 15 years when we get married this August. We are highschool sweethearts.

We met when I was 15.

We joke we're on the 10, 10, 10 plan.  We dated for 10 months before getting engaged.  We are getting married in cabo 10 months after we got engaged.  We hope to be pregnant 10 months after our wedding. : ) We knew eachother for 1 year before we began dating.  But I agree with Lisa.... when you know, you know!

We have dated for almost 6 years.  It will be almost 7 years when we wed!  I used to think that was a long time to date someone, until I read this post.  We actually never really wanted to marry until the past year.  We jokingly called each other "life partners" bc boyfriend/girlfriend just didn't describe our relationship enough.

We got engaged after 5 years, and will be married 4 months before our 7 year anniversary.

We dated 7 1/2 years before getting engaged, and will be married at exactly 10 1/2 years together.  I guess we are not fast movers, haha.
