    First time I got married I was 17 when we got engaged. Together for a year before we got married and married for 7 years (only 6 together) *shocking that didn't work out*
    Second time, I was 27 when we met and we were married within 5 months. Engaged maybe for two months. We have been together for 9 years (this year).

    I believe we got engaged after about 6 or 8 months of dating and got married about 6 months later. We were both 24 when we got married and that was 28 years and 3 kids ago.

    Well, I have been married twice: first time may not help you as I was 16 when I got married so was never really engaged but had been seeing this guy since I was 13. We were married 7 years then divorced. My second marriage I met my husband when I was 26 dated for a year, got engaged and was engaged for a year then got married two years to the day that we met. We have been together now for 26 years (27 as of next month). He is my soulmate and I plan on staying with him till death do us part!!

    Hubby and I had our first date the end of September, I was 18. He proposed to me the first week in December that same year, so we had been together a tiny bit over 2 months when we got engaged. I turned 19 in February and we got married in June. We are still happily married and will celebrate our 10 year anniversary this year. :love:
