That is the cutest thing I ever heard!!! What a great story to tell people! AWWWW!

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. =)

I also dated my ex for 5 years and were married for 1.5 years before I asked him to leave and get a divorce.

Greg and I were friends first for a year and a half before we admitted our feelings for each other and became 'exclusive'; 10 months later he proposed. We will wed about 2 weeks before our 2 year anniversary.
