Just curious, How long did you and your partner date before being engaged? My husband and I dated for exactly 3 years before he proposed. We made it official 10.06.16, he proposed 10.06.19, and we got married 10.06.20 What about you?

    My husband and I were the same, we were first acquaintances I was really good friends with his brothers. Then my husband and I ended up becoming bestfriends for 7 years before we made it official

    Understandable, my husband and I talked about marriage early on as well. I ended up getting pregnant almost 6 months after dating lol we definitely knew. We had also been bestfriends 7 years prior though so we literally knew everything about each other, it was meant to be

    FH proposed 4.5 years after our first date, but I knew about the ring for like 6 months Smiley xd He tried proposing twice a couple months after getting it in the mail (I saw the package's return address, which had the Etsy seller that I had sent him links to), but chickened out - both times were too public!

    Oh yes very similar to my husband and I. We also thought about moving our big wedding to New Years Eve (since we got married during COVID) but decided we didn't want to wait that long. Now our reception will be 10.02.21

    We went on our first date on July 25, 2018. He proposed on June 9th, 2019. And we got married July 25, 2020. We knew really early on that we wanted to get married and in October 2018, we noticed that July 25th was on a Saturday in 2020. We knew that was our date way before he proposed!

    Yes I definitely get it, I do feel like high school sweethearts tend to not rush (At least from what I've seen with friends)

    We started dating 02/2020 and we were "pre engaged" by 12/2020 and started actively planning our wedding. He officially proposed with the ring 04/2021.

    Same for my husband and I. He had brought up how he would love to have the same date all across and that's exactly what he made it!
