I say about 4 yrs before we got married............
we dated 6 months before he popped the question, and then we dated for another 8 months before we got married. We have been married for a little over 6.5 years now. I don't suggest it though, made it really hard. The first 5 years of marriage is hard anyways, it was funny it was like as soon as we hit 5 years marriage, everything got easier for us.
We were together for almost 3 years already.
how many years were you all together before you got married or engaged?????
ive been waiting to i thought he was going to ask me on our 2 yr annie, but i screwed it up when he asked me to look at rings i thought it was because i said something to him about it. so i said no also i was upset because he ran me down on how i am such a bad gf. if that happened would anyone want to look at rings after that. i love my bf and i want to be engaged with him but then i think of all the fighting and what all has been going on since the birth of our son that i wonder if it will ever happen, nor if i say no to him when he does ask. i am questioning this relationship. the past 2 days has been alright and things have gotten better when he got off work yesterday he took our son right away it was nice to get time to myself for a little while. i told him its not fair that i spend all day w/ the kids with no help and im sick of it and would like time also tomyself. so he has been helping with it its alot better so i dont feel alone as a parent anymore. but what does 2 days tell ya not to much.. i am depressed about not being asked the big question i no so many pple getting married after 6 months that theyve been together and even a yr but my bf told me a year ago that he wants to wait years before he can even say anything about marriage to me. he said what kinda hurt was that when i was pregnant he questioned if he even wanted to ever marry me. it has changed now but then it did hurt because our son was planned and everything. so laura good topic but bad topic for me :( still hasnt happened and dont think it will anytime in the next few years. also we are living with my parents saving money to buy a house and i would like to be out of here in our house and all set up before anything ever happens.. i want a future not a mess...
