There are lots of depressing threads in here, so I thought I'd make a happy one! Or at least a neutral one.
How soon into your relationship did you get engaged, and how long were you engaged for before you were married?

Well, seeing as this is a place to talk about love, there is sure to be A LOT of depressing threads here.
I’m not engaged or married yet, but I hope to pop the question one-day, I imagine probably about… 2 years? Maybe sooner, depending on how young I am when said event takes place.

Yep! I tough of starting some positive thread myself. But it's no surprise that only sad posts are here: we get here only when we have problems. In public or to our friends we brag how happy we are.
Anyway, I met my wife five years ago, after a year we started living together and got married after two years. Despite some minor glitches, living with my wife is happy and fulfilling.
of friendship I finally asked her out. We were engaged two weeks later and married six weeks after that. We celebrated our ninth anniversary two months ago.

We were together for about 6 months before he asked me to marry him. Living together 3 months after we met. We got engaged in october and were getting married in July. I don't think everything should be by the book if it feels right. I know that i will have a perfect life with him and I am NOT letting this one go! Everyone is telling me "You don't know him" Blah Blah Blah. i do tho. Him and I have the kind of relationship where we were completly comfortable with eachother almost as soon as we met. We don't fight or argue (which some say is unhealthy) We just get a long that great where neither one of us have a complaint.

Congratulations, Clue! Just be careful in thinking that you "just know you'll have a perfect life." That's quite a high expectation and no offense, but a tad unrealistic.
I do wish you the best and don't mean to offend. Just don't want to see you set yourselves up for disappointment.

We were engaged a year and a month into our relationship, married one year later. Best move I ever made.
