5 years. We had bought a house before I got a ring. I was ready but not chomping at the bit. He was ready but just took a while to get his butt in gear w/ it. I really didn't sweat it because I knew the commitment was there. I had my moments where I felt like "ok, dude, I'm 30, you're 27, let's get this show on the road", but I never felt that way for too long. He's my best friend, I knew we were forever, and I knew I'd rather just wait and be surprised rather than harp on him about it and take the joy out of it. Plus, buying a house together is another kind of legally-binding contract.0

We met 1/21/06, got engaged on 9/10/09, and married 9/2/11. We are hoping to expand our family within the next couple of years. We are 30 and 32.0

Erm. Difficult to say. My husband basically asked me to marry him 8 months into our relationship, so I'd guess that would be when we got engaged. But there was no ring or proposal. And we didn't marry for 3 and a half years into our relationship.0

Ive been with my sweetheart for 13years, will be 14 years August 31, 2012. We met August 1998. He proposed officially on our FL vacation June 2008. So 10yrs for me and since we've been together for so long, we will be making it official at the courthouse this year on our anniversary Aug 31st). I wouldn't change anything about my relationship with him. :blushing:0

We were engaged within 6 months of dating but didn't get married until our 4th dating anniversary. We just celebrated 9 years together last March.0

We dated about 6 months before getting engaged and then another year before we were married; we did not co-habitate before marriage though. We just celebrated our 19th anniversary.0

Dated my HSBF for 6 years including 2 years long distance in college. We talked about getting married. I realized I wanted other things in life so I broke it off.
My current BF and I have been together 2.5 years and we talk casually about things long term. I'm 22 and he's 27, we both have "ring lists" (lists of stuff to do before getting married) so when those things get done we will see where we are at. I know that things will not change very much when we get married so we figure whats the rush. We don't live together now but we only live 2 miles apart.0 -
4 DAYS, believe it or not and we got married a year later. We just celebrated our 27th wedding anniversary!0

I dated someone for five years and ended the relationship when I was 22. He was 25 and I was getting resentful that he hadn't proposed. However, I'm so glad he didn't because I went on to find someone way better than him who treats me like a true companion.0

we were friends for 2.5 years before we started dating, then dated for a little over a year before we got engaged & then married a year later. Our 14 year anniversary is this October but I'm sooooooo glad we were friends first. I think that's what's kept us together. i really KNEW him before i got involved with him. it will happen when you least expect it and when you stop expecting it to.0

My mum was 21 when she met my dad and he was 31. He was previously married to someone else for a few years and they divorced. Within a few months after my parents met they got married. She had my eldest brother when she was 24. They had five kids together, my elder sister passed away almost 8yrs ago. It was devastating to my family and even more devastating when my mom lost her husband of over 32 years, my father last year.0

21 years. Getting married next year in March. It will be a huuuge party - and no need to worry about people telling us it is not about the day it is the rest of your life. In our case it is the day as we already have the life.
My 18 year old daughter is my bridesmaid. My 6 year old daughter is the flower girl and my 13 year old son is walking me down the aisle. My almost in-laws are pooping themselves with excitement.0 -
It was about 2.5 yrs. Then it took 5 yrs to get married because we were waiting on his divorce :grumble:0
