So How Long Did it take?

angela_294 · September 2010

Just wondering for all you newly engaged ladies out there how long were you and your fiancee together for before you got engaged?

nbcarlson · September 2010

4 and a half years! it took forever haha. But we are only 20 so it made sense to wait a long time!

I just got engaged on August 14th. We were together for just under 3 years.

AdeleDazeem · September 2010

About eight years. We started dating in college and went through ups and downs during our twenties as we grew, found careers, and became the people we are.

We finally settled about three years ago and were engaged over a year ago when we were both 28.

2 1/2 years. Met through my paralegal who thought we would HATE each other because we are so different, but we've been inseperable every since we met!!

Less than a year, we moved very fast with everything. We've now been together for almost a year and a half.

amaetom · September 2010

Almost 5 years! We were best friends when we were 10. Grew apart in high school, reunited on my 23rd Birthday, started dating a few months later. Around the 2 year mark it was get engaged or buy a house. We opted for the house and now, 3 years of living with eachother and not killing one another, he asked me to marry him in June! Our friends pick on us because we do everything backwards.

FI and I met in the fall of 2006 and over the next year we became best friends. We began dating about a year after we met, and became engaged about a month ago, so we were dating just under 3 years before we got engaged.

HobokensFury · September 2010

18 months

jagore08 · September 2010

We have known each other for much longer than that though

My previous relationship lasted for 9 years, without any serious talk of marriage. Thank God for that! Sometimes, you dodge a bullet!

JenniferLuvsCandy · September 2010

Under 3 months! YIKES! I have had long term relationships and he had too. It was just right. He actually told me he had my ring made a WEEK after he met me. A WEEK!
