    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!


    30 when I got engaged and married, we dated about a year before getting engaged but knew each other longer than that, and yes we are still together. Celebrated 26 years in December!
  • Met in August 1999 I was 25 he was 27
