Married 18 months after we met. Made the decision to marry 7 months after we met, and neither of us can agree on when we actually started "dating." It just sort of happened. But I knew from the day I met her she was it, and I was going to do whatever it took to make her feel the same.

Next month we'll celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary. We just had our first kid 7 weeks ago.

I dated a lot of girls in college and after, but when I met my wife it was just "different." I am a believer in the notion "when you know, you know."

6 years dating, engaged for 3 years before getting married. I have to admit after taking so long, post wedding didn't seem all that special. Didn't have the awesome newlywed phase I've heard about. Been married for 5 years now though.

Dated nine years, engaged for one.

Getting shipped all over the globe courtesy of the US Army really makes the whole relationship thing complicated.

Dated about 4 years, engaged for less than a year, been married almost 4.5 years. Some days the crazy shines through but I love her and I reckon we'll keep making it.
