good luck tonight, la petite amie!!! My fingers are crossed for you!

Thanks! I''m so excited! It''s been so hard to wait, knowing that he has the ring already. He jokingly calls me his pre-fiancee. I''m ready to lose the "pre"

 

[DMBsGirl]

We have been together 8 1/2 years. We met the summer after senior year of high school. We are now 26 and 27. I didn''t have engagement fever until about 10 or 11 months ago. Those 10-11 months have been torture!!

It was 3 years last month, though the first "hey we should start planning to get engaged and throwing around wedding/marriage details and ideas" conversation came at around the 2.5 year point. Considering there''s a pretty good chance he won''t propose until next summer (4.5 year mark) that''d be we''d have spent almost half of our relationship in the pre-engagement stage

 

[bec]

7 years this Oct.

 

[curiopotter]

Will be 4 years in July.

 

[Alienor]

It will be a year and half in june.

Good luck to you, la petite amie.

I don''t think that''s unusual at all... our first plans for wedding/engagement came in at a little less than 1.5 years, so that was just over half of our pre-engagement relationship

it all blends together in the end, it doesn''t matter what talks/rings/documents come at what point!

Don''t get down on yourself feeling like you''re behind the curve... there''s now curve

, don''t worry!

 

[hilbake]

It will be ten years this October. Recently we''ve been talking about getting married next summer!
I don''t think there''ll be a proposal or a ring, though

We just bought a house (yay!), and since we have to save for a wedding, the ring will just have to wait.
It''s ok, I''m happy that we''ll finally be out of our apartment and out of the city...
