how long til you got married?

[boomboomfirepower]

Just wondering really, started seeing a guy and I'm pretty sure I'm gonna end up marrying him!

How long were you with your boyfriend/girlfriend before you got married?

Im dying to hear loads of happy stories!

10 months.

Married 4 years after we got together, although I knew after 2 weeks. Turned out we too had met at 14, just not twigged. Been married 6 years this year.

1 year, 1 month, 1 week and 1 day after meeting (bizarrely!)

I didn't realise this until after the wedding when someone asked how long we had been together!

[Accidentallyquirky]

I knew the day I met him that I'd marry him.... I'd never ever wanted to marry anyone previously.
After 6/7 months he proposed, we married 6 months later. When I meet people and tell them they usually pull a shocked face - when you know, you know tho :)

DH said to me on our 2nd date "if we were both single I'd marry you tomorrow" (we were both with other people at the time).

19 years later we were married . If it's meant to be, it will be.

Met in the April. Dumped him in the September. Got back together in Nov. Decided that it was serious that Christmas. Started saving for a house in the January. Moved in as soon as I left uni, the following August.

As soon as we moved in, we started saving for the wedding. married 3 years later (having bought a house in the meantime). Had our fist child two years after that.

We have now been together 16 happy years and married for 12 .

Met at 16, married at 26.
Still together now (38).

But I know a few people who met and married within months - all still happily together years later.

Five years, we moved in together the day we got married. We waited until he'd got his leave to remain here, and could buy a house for us. I've always been a pretty independent person, so wasn't desperate to rush into marriage or cohabiting.

Moved in together after 3 months, engaged at the end of the first year, still not married 7 years in! Life keeps getting in the way, now waiting until baby is 2, so 18 months from now..

DH asked me to move to Australia with him on our 2nd date. I said yes! But took us 7 years and 2 continents to get married - will be together 12 years soon

[Startail]

Engaged in 6 weeks, although we both knew by the end of our first weekend together.

Married two years later when we could live in the same city all the time not just at weekends.

[MrsPoglesWood]

29 years and counting. We might get married next year.

[SweetHoneyBeeeeee]

Met September 2005, engaged September 2010, married December 2011

[Coffee1Sugar]

Ooo well DP and I have been together 16months, bought a house together at 11 months and talk about marriage all the time. It's my birthday in 3 weeks, here's hoping

[TattiePants]

Been together 20 yrs, married for the last 7.

[GibberTheMonkey]

Knew each other just under 3 years when we got married. It's our 11th anniversary tomorrow

[Sianilaa]

Engaged after 3 weeks, married 10 months after our first date :)

[BusStopWanker]

Moved in together after 3 months (although TBH I just never bothered going home pretty much from day 1), and married after 4 years.

[Blanketsandpillows]

We got engaged after 6 years and married after 8. I think everyone is different and things like age, religion, both your working/job situations makes a difference. I love how all relationships are different!

[peteypiranha]

Marries after a year and a half

[Cinnamom]

DH and I met and 3 months later moved in together. Got married 18 months later. Had our 18th wedding anniversary last month.

[Spongingbobsunderpants]

Found a friend of a mutual friend's photo after we got together in 2001 and realised we had met each other in 96 as we were both in the same picture. We got engaged 2004 and married 2006. Our mutual friend was bridesmaid.
