    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 21 when I got engaged and we'd been together 6 years. I was 22 when we were married. Were still together and weve been married 3 years

    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:

    I am not very good with dates, but I will give it my best shot. I knew my hubs for 7 or so years before we started dating. We dated long distance for 2 years, then lived together for 2 years. Were engaged for almost 2 years and married Halloween 2010 ( 2010 was perfect, I can remember that) Been married for almost 2 years. Hmm....2 seems to be our magic number lol

    Sorry, forgot our ages. I think I was 34 when I was married and about 32 when we got engaged. He was about 32 when married and 30 for the engagement. Alzheimers has set in already
