How old were you and how long of a relationship were you in before you got married?

Out of curiosity

First marriage - very on/off relationship from age 22/23 after being out of a proper relationship for maybe 3 months, eventually married 9 years later for convenience/legal reasons. Divorced after a year.
Less than a year after that met new partner who I've been with consistently for 7 years and engaged now at age 39.

Met at 33, married at 36, DC1 at 37, DC2 at 39.

37, been with DP 11 years, already have a house 2 kids and a stepson. We're getting married next month. We may have done things outside the traditional order 🤷‍♀️
