Quick path to engaged

Nope. We found out we were pregnant shortly after our 1 year anniversary and got engaged just a couple months shy of our 2 year anniversary. We'll be getting married a month after being together for 3 years. So, we've kinda had a lifetime inside the recommended dating timeline. Hahaha we wouldn't change a thing though, we knew very early on that this was it for us. When you know, you know. *heart emoji*

Dated 1.5 years before moving in together, then at 2.5 years we got engaged... but we are really young - only 21. However he is already in his career & I'm graduating school in a few months, we both had some wild times in our first year of dating and have matured an insane amount.... together

Everyone's different, but we did get engaged right after 3 years together. But that doesn't make it the 'right way' everyone's unique to what works for them!

FH unofficially proposed at two months, but while we knew that would would get married we kept it to ourselves. We officially got engaged on our two year anniversary. We also don't move on the " normal timeline", he moved in with me during our second week of dating.

We were on the slow path: engaged after just under eight years.

H and I were on a relatively short path. We knew we'd get married a month into dating, but we didn't get engaged until a year and two months because he insisted we be together at least a year before thinking of marriage. We married almost exactly two years after meeting each other. I think it ended up being the perfect timing.

We got engaged on our 2 yr anniversary. But we had talked about getting married before that. I was the one that wanted a "big" wedding. He would of been happy just going to the court house lol.

We got engaged after 15 months of dating. But we also bought a house after just 6 months of dating. We're getting married right around the 2.5 year mark.

I only know one person that was a typical two year dating to engagement. My FH and I were 5 years together before he proposed.

I didn't do that. We were dating for 18 months and will be engaged 18 months. If we had the funds all this would have been sooner. We knew we wanted to be together for good like a month in. We were both opposed to getting married though so for us the "forever" was moving in together which happened a few months in. I don't believe in schedules. I know a couple that was engaged at 6 months and married 6 months later with a strong marraige. I also know a couple that dated for 3 years, engaged for two, and now on the road to divorce because they can't agree on matters like if they want kids or where they want to live. My FH and I had this conversation a month into dating.

My friend started going out with her bf in August. By January they moved in together and by Mid February he proposed. They're thinking of getting married on their 1 yest anniversary & by next year have vow renewal at the church. They are also trying to have baby. I do want to mention that she was married before for about 3 years. According to her, she knew what she was looking for.

We got engaged after a year and half. I don't think there is a magic number as long as you know one another and want to spend your loves together. Age can play a role too.

We dated two years before he proposed but marriage was discussed about three months into our relationship.

We decided when we both met our financial goals discussed in the beginning that he would then propose and then two years later we had done just that!

We started talking about marriage after only dating for several weeks, but didn't get engaged until we'd been dating nearly three and a half years. I could see things moving much faster if we had met later on, but we were both young (21 and 23) when we met and knew we had to finish our schooling, get into better paying jobs in order to move out on our own, etc.

My FH proposed on our one year anniversary and we are getting married on our two year anniversary. When you know you know! Number of years doesn't matter!

He had the ring for about four months before he actually proposed. We could have been engaged as early as 8 months in and I would have been just as happy, excited, and ready to marry him.

I think that totally depends on the couple. FH and I dated in middle school and through part of high school, decided to part ways and see other people for close to a decade, finally reconnecting after that. Its been eight years since we got back together, and he proposed last October (a week before our wedding date, actually).

He didn't see a point to getting married because it shouldn't change anything between us, and I agree with him on that --- buuuutttt I wanted to share the day with my gigantic family, so we're getting married

I don't think you should worry too much about this. What is right for some might not be right for you.

Today is FH and my two-year anniversary of dating. We got engaged 3 months ago. We will be married in May.

Engaged after 8 months. My best friend dated her now-husband for 9 years before he proposed (and she was beyond ready to marry him.)

My Fiancé and I are both young, so a quick engagement wasn't possible, but we knew we would get married one day a few months after we met and here we are today 7 1/2 months until our wedding! We've been together for a little over 3 years now. When you know, you know! My parents dated for 3 months before they were engaged and the were married 1 year from their first date! They just celebrated their 22nd anniversary!

FH and I only dated a few months before becoming engaged and we couldn't be more confident in our decision. I am in my early 20s and he is in his late 20s with a 3 year old daughter. From the very beginning we knew we wanted to be a family and it just works. Time is all about perspective. If you are confident in your relationship that's all that matters!
