How long did you wait to get engaged?

Let's here the stories!! I'm not, yet, because we haven't been together very long, but I am a FIRM believer in "when you know you know".

    FH and I met when we were in high school. I was 16 and he was 15. We were together almost 4 years before we got engaged. But, I knew he was the one after only about a year. I guess you could call us high school sweethearts.

    We started dating our sophomore year of college, and we're both 27 now. So, we waited almost 7 years. As I'm sure you can imagine, we are READY to be married!

    We got engaged just in just short of two years after we started dating. We're waiting another year and a half to get married from that point.

    I was only 17 when I met him and he was 21. I am 26 now. We both always new. We both also new we wanted to get to know each other and take our time. Let us go through are little partying stages.lol. As of today we have been together 8 years and 6 months. He proposed to me in July of 2010. He stated he wanted to make sure he did it somewhere special for us. So in July of 2010 I took my first ever plan ride to Hawaii(14hrs) on a Thursday. That Friday on our sunset cruise around Diamond head he proposed to me...in front of everyone. Of course I was a bucket full of tears. Then we got free Moet the rest of the cruise. It's funny because that Saturday we went skydiving 14,000ft. He said he was going to propose then but didn't know if we were going to survive.lol. I know him in and out and all the little things we both do to irk each other but i love him to pieces.

    ......Oh and to answer your question.lol By the time we get married it will be about 3 years.

    A few months and we were just talking. All of a sudden, he's talking to a few friends and his brother and says we're engaged. Lil' me is half expecting no wedding or at least a down on the knee proposal. But my guy isn't the average guy so I didn't argue. lol

    14.5 months for engagement, and we will get married a week before our three year anniversary, and exactly three years to the day we met. Our engagement will span 21.5 months.
