We had been dating about a year and 10 months when we got engaged. We moved in together after about 7 months of dating I think...It was so strange how it worked out but it just did!

We will have been together just over 4 years when we get married.

I was joking with my FI about how long it took him to ask and said "It only took 5 years, 2 months, *blank* days....blah blah blah." He laughed and said "Knowing you, you really calculated that." So I did , I found a date duration calculator online and it was 5 years, 2 months, 30 days, 4 hours and 45 minutes from our first date till he proposed. He proposed in June 2008 and wanted to plan the wedding for October 2008. I told him he waited this long to propose that he could last a little longer. So we are getting married in May 2009, after over 6 years together.

Our 13 year mark was Jan 14, 2008 and March 9, 2008 was the day he proposed. Getting married Nov 14, 2009.

He's my first boyfriend and we've been together since I was 16.

We were together 2 months short of 7 years when we got engaged. Our 9 year "together" anniversary will be our wedding date, as well.

Together 3 and 1/2 years when got engaged. Will be together 5 when married. I would have said yes if he would have asked me on our second date, but love our amazing years together and wouldn't have it any other way!
