    I got engaged at age 20, after being with him for about eight months. We got married about a month and a half after that. <3 We've been married for a week and a half! :) (John and I moved in together two weeks into the relationship!)

    My husband and I met in May of 2007 at the burial of my best friend's mother. Yep....my best friend is his cousin. Anyway...I was 26, he was 44. We became engaged when I was 29, June 2010. We married September 2011 and are withstanding all that life throws at us! Even with the age difference, which some people have a really hard time accepting.

    We got engaged when I was 29 and he was 24 we got married the same year. We had been together for 3 years. We have been together for 19 years.
    I had been married previously, married at 21 together for 6 years at that point and marriage lasted 5 years. So, 11 years total relationship. Too young....

    I met my husband June 13, we were engaged August 6, and we were married September 12. This was all in 1997, it happened pretty fast! We are still very happily married almost 14 and a half years later with two kids. He was 24 and I was 18 at the time.
