    as the day you got married or as the day you started dating?

    On the info section of your profile it says:

    Relationship Status: Married to _____

    Anniversary date: _____

    I put the day we got together when I made my facebook & I haven't changed it since we got married but mostly everyone I know married has the day they got married as theirs.

    I haven't put anything because I didn't even know that was and option. I just checked my profile and it doesn't have a place for a date :-/

    If I could, I would put the date of the wedding, since my relationship status is married.

    @noritake22 do you have it actually say who your SO is? If so it should be under that! If you dont have him listed it wont show anniversary!

    I think I'll change mine when we get married... probably on the 1st anniversary so it doesn't look like a restart button (LOL)

    @d_mari3: Oh, okay. That is the reason then. My hubby doesn't have a facebook account, so I will never have that :-/

    @Leahhh of course you will...your SO has a facebook account and is on your friend list. It will show when you request his in relationship....that is the only reason you are able to see it!

    Not true. If you edit your profile status to married it has an option for your anniversary. My anniversary shows and my DH isn't on FB.

    @MissGreen- oh didnt know that....as I am not married yet....all I know is you couldnt put it when you were in a relationship if they were not on....but then again that was like back in 2010 when they actually just start the whole anniversary thing...I know the FH and I had to resend request and everything for it!

    @d_mari3:

    I actually think the only way you can do without them being on FB is through an app. My iPhone FB app is definetly different than the desktop site. On an app just go to your profile, personal info and then it will have edit and it adds that in.

    I put the date that we started dating. At first I put our wedding date, but it felt weird to disregard the 4 years we were together before the wedding.

    @JewishBride: That's how I felt. We got married 4 days before our 4 year anniversary.

    @JewishBride: That's what is holding me back from being like "wedding date, for sure." It seems odd to pretend we haven't been together for a million years prior to getting married... I wish there were spots for both! Haha. I think I will probably leave it as our dating anniversary for a while and then I'm sure at some point switch it over?

    My FI doesn't have Facebook so it won't let me put an anniversary date in. That's okay, I keep my profile pretty basic anyways, I don't like people having access to all that info about me... I'd probably leave it blank anyways.

    @TinyTina: My FI has facebook, but I'm the same way as you in I don't fill out every line that you can put about yourself. My profile is very basic, too.

    I caught FI putting our date that we met in the anniversary section once, but when I walked in the room, he deleted it! I guess he was embarassed that he got caught doing something mushy. I asked him about it and we decided we wanted to keep our stuff simple and didn't put it on there. He's silly.

    Our dating anniversary is a little complicated, so I just put our wedding anniversary.  That's the one most people will publicly acknowledge.

    Right now mine says our dating anniversary (obviously), but I think when we get married I'll change it. I think anyone that is your friend on FB probably knows that you and your husband have been together for quite a while (as long as you aren't one of those people that adds every single random person that requests you as a friend). And I think that I'd want the date that holds the most significance to me to be on my FB. For me, our dating anniversary means a lot, but I don't think it will ever mean as much to me as the date that we are officially husband and wife.

    I put the date we got married.

    We've been together 7 years longer than that, but to me "anniversary" really means "wedding anniversary".
