How long have you all been with your H2Bs?

Posted on Planning 64

I'm worried that people think we haven't been together long enough to marry! My Sister was with her husband 7 years before they married. Rob and I will have been together 2 years and 9 months when we get married.

    We have been together for 2 years and 9 months and by the time we get married we will have been together for just over 4 years.

    I didn't know immediately that he was the one, but after 3 months of dating I was sure!

    If I changed the 10 years to 13 years in your post victoriamarie; I could have written this post word for word myself - we're exactly the same...even the bit down to having a tough 4 or 5 years being ready to get married! ?

    Hilarious!

    we met in 2005, were friends for a couple of years, started going out in 2007, moved in together after 18 months and got engaged a year after that so we would have been together 3 1/2 years when we get wed!

    my manager got engaged on their 2nd date and got married a couple of months after, they have just celebrated their 10th anniversary!

    Wow it's not often I hear of people in a similar situation! I bet like me you've seen couples meet, get engaged, married and divorced during the time you've been together.

    Been together for 7 & a half years - been engaged for 3. Our paths very briefly crossed in 2000 but we were both in a relationship. And then met properly and got together at Xmas in 2002.

    We've been together 2 years and 5 months, and get married in October so will be 2 years and 8 months by then, and I knew him for about 2 years before we got together through my Dad. Got engaged last Xmas so had been together just under 2 years then. When it's right, it doesn't matter how long. My parents got together, got married and had me within a year of meeting, and are celebrating their 30th anniversary in October!

    When we get married we will have been a couple for 2 years and 5 months (we got engeged after approx 5 motnhs but I have known OH for 26 years so he was hardly a stranger).

    I think when you know you know, don't worry about what other people think if your happy then go for it.

    Yeah same here - I don't really know anyone else in the same situation (well I do now) Smiley smile). I definitely know what you mean when you say you've seen couples get together, get engaged, married and divorced and some with kiddies in the same amount of time you've been together. I used to get sad about it; but actually I'm really pleased that we're lucky enough to still be together without the major dramas a lot of other couples seem to go through - although easy to say once you're planning the wedding though hey! ;-)
