    I was 21, he was 25 (well I guess 20 he gave me the ring for 21), we were together prior to engagement for a very short time only 4 months.I was 21, he was 25 when we got married.

    We are still together. Will be 12 years married in March.

    How old were you when you got engaged? How long had you been together before getting engaged? How old were you when you got married? Are you still together (if so, for how long)? Doing some informal research for a class - answers appreciated!

    I was 18 when we got engaged. He was 23.
    We had been together for 3 years.
    I was 19 when we got married. He was 23.
    We are still happily married after 14 years.

    Got engaged in 1994 at age 18 1/2, had been dating since 1989 - yes all through high school!

    We were married in 1996 (age 20 for me, 21 for him) and are still married - 15 years now! We've had some struggles as everyone does but we are still going strong!

    We started dating when we were both 16, in April 2001. We got engaged in September 2007, we were both 23, and we got married May 2009 when we were both 25. We had been dating for 6 1/2 years. We've been married almost 3 years but we've been together for 11 years. We still love each other more and more every day :heart:

    Met at 14 at school(we had mutual friends)......Married at 16 in August of "79"....still married going on 33 years. Still best friends!! Now that's an acomplishment. It's not easy, a marriage is always changing and growing at the partners grow and change. You have to let your partner become the person they are supposed to be, not what you want them to be. If everyone could figure that out, I don't think there would be half as many divorces.
