We've been together for 8 years and dated for 7 before getting engaged. It's nice reading these posts and realizing that I'm not the only one who has waited so long! We went to school together beginning in kindergarten...he still even has a Valentine's Day card that I gave him in grade 1 with one of my letters written backwards!

We were together 10 months when Hank proposed. We knew it was right from the getgo, pretty much from our first date. Ten months felt like a forever. People say when you know you know. And I think a lot of people who also meet on e-harmony feel the same way. We celebrate our one year in a little over a week! Thank you Dr. Neil Clark Warren and e-harmony for letting me meet my soulmate!!!
PS. The funny part is, before Hank and I met and this happened, if anyone said they were getting engaged that quickly I would have said your nuts! But now I truely know, each couple has their own unique story!

Seamus and I have been together 2 years. It will be almost three when we tie the knot. The first time around I dated my ex for 5 years, was married for 2 and then got divorced.

Oh .. I believe I'm at another extreme. Marco and I dated for only 2 weeks before he proposed to me!!
We met 8 years ago in uni when we were both exchange students in Canada (2 semesters for me and 1 semester for him). We were very good friends but we never dated back then. That year, I went down to Mexico for summer school and his family hosted me for 3 months. After I returned home, we kept in touch through emails on and off, and then we lost contact. About a year ago, we re-connected through facebook and felt like old friends as always. Everything just sparkled off when I visited him in Mexico (as a tag-on trip to Cuba) during last Easter.
With many romantic / magical moments, he surprised me with a promise ring 2 days after we went out, and an engagement ring the night before I left!! I still feel overwhelmed by the whole thing... now I believe that there's "the one" out there for everybody. Distance and time don't seem to matter - at the right moment, things will naturally fall into place. And I call it destiny. =)
