Got engaged 3 weeks ago. We’ve known each other for 15 years, been dating for 4 1/2 years, living together for 2.

My hubby and I dated for almost 9 years before he proposed! We started dating when we were 18/19. I’ll admit it was torture waiting, but worth it in the end because I knew he was just as excited as I was to get married ๐
Just over a year. We met a month after I got out of a 5 year relationship, and I never looked back.
We had been dating for nearly 5 years when he proposed, we are both in our 30s. I knew one month in that he was the one for me but this is one part of my life I was leaving to the traditional (I’m a planner LOL).
Interestingly enough his parents also got engaged after a 5 year relationship and they were in their 30s which was totally not the norm in the 70s. I said it must just run in his family!
We’re getting married this January ๐
I had known him exactly 10 years when he proposed this year in July. And we had been dating for 9 years. I was 2 months shy of turning 30! We’ll be married next August. This thread makes me feel better as for 9 years I sat back and watched everyone I knew get engaged and married after only being together for a few years or less than a year! I was tired of the constant “Why hasn’t he proposed?; When is the wedding?; Maybe he’s never going to marry you.” Glad to hear I wasn’t alone in this.
we were just a week shy of our 2 year anniversary when he proposed (we’ve lived together the entire time we’ve been a couple – we started out as “roommates”) and by the time we get married we’ll have been together almost 3 years.
We dated 5 years before he popped the question.
We met in 2009 when we were 25, got engaged 2/14/13 when I was 29, and hopefully we’ll be married by 32!
@paulajmc4: we got engaged on our 1 year anniversary, and will be married 8 months later. but we’re also older, more experienced, adn want to get a family started.
The topic ‘how long did it take him to propose?’ is closed to new replies.
