It depends on how well you know each other. My wife and I were married 5 months after we got together. Going on six years now.


Amanda
That all depends on your guys. How do you feel, I know people that have dated 11 years and never married. I also know people that dated for 6 months and are happily married now.


mlock123
not at all.

No. 10 months after I met my husband, we got married. And we are still married. Its been over 3 1/2 years now. And he was 25 and I was 20 when we got married. So age and how long you date someone doesnt matter.

I think it is too soon. It depends on if you know that person really well. I don't think a year is enough to know a person. A lot of people said no, but think about it..it might effect your religion because you might divorce, you might have children and that would complicate things if you divorce..etc. It is something you should really think about. Good luck!!

Nope. If both of u truly love each other, then by all means get married!!!

I've seen couples dating for 5 years and yet they still end up breaking up. Its not about the time together but more of the bond you have built together.

All the best!!!

I lived with my wife for 2 years before we got married. We knew what each other was all about. We have been married for 17 years and have two kids. I suggest that every couple live together for at least a year or two before marriage so you know exactly how each other is to live with.


**~~ShAwTy Is ThE ****~~**
Absolutely not.. .. If that's what you want and you really love each other, then how long you have been together doesn't really matter...I wish you the best of luck and congrats!!!!


?
OMG NO... look back when our well my grandparents not sure how old you are im 28 but back when they were young they were together for I think it was 2-3 months and they are now going on there 50 something wedding anniv... I think a yr and a half is plenty of time to get to know eachother... If you love someone then the amount of time you have been together really does not matter....

i think itdepends on your age. it is necessary for a person to be ones self for a while. go to school, find out who you are outside of your family.experiance life with other people. and i think if you're asking that question ;then you have doubts and i would say no. when you are ready you wont have to ask.

No. A year and a half is a sufficient courting period.

I don't think that you can put a time limit on love. When you've found the person you know you want to spend the rest of your life with, you may know it right away, or it may take a few months or years. Nonetheless, when you know you know. I don't think people should waste their time waiting. People think too much, and then they end up waiting forever. You've gotta take that chance. Don't let anyone else dictate your life. If you feel like your ready to be married, then go for it. I do have a small recommendation however...I think you should at least live with a person before you get married. I know some people say that you shouldn't. But sometimes you find that you just can't live with a person. If you can't live with them when your not married, then how are you goin to live with them when you are?

Sometimes our choices don't turn out exactly how we hoped, but how will we truly ever know unless we go for it? We live and we learn...but we gotta live first....

Aboustly not, thats a good time to marry as long as you know each others faults and everything and worked threw them you should be just fine!

Congrats!!

If you have seen this person at their worst (sick, angry, greiving, distressed, broke, embarrassed, confronted, disrespected, stolen from, injuried threatened, etc... and did you feel comfortable with their ability to handle these situations reasonably ? Can you say that they too have seen you at your worst and still stuck by you? Do still you have eyes for another? Do you have unresolved issues with another? Are you willing to share EVERYTHING with your intented? Have you both disclosed information that is important to you both as a couple? Are you sure this person is exactally who that present themselves to be? Can you picture your life without them? Would you give up if they became sick, unemployed, over weight, etc...These are things you should ask yourself first. How is the relationship you share with their parents, children (if it applies) friends, etc... What does your family, close friends etc, have to say about your future mate? Are you happy being alone? Are you expecting this person to "complete you" or are you feeling complete yourself and desire this other being to add to your own pre-existing peace. Have you prayed (if you are a believer of any type) Are you in anyway afraid to commit? Do you feel pressured by this person? What is your "gut" saying? Is this your idea or is it mutual? Would you give up everything if your mate needed it? Would he or she do the same for you? Do you or have you ever feared this person? Have they been violent toward you? Do they need substance- abuse counseling or any type? Do you feel there are things that they need to fix? Are they jealous of your other relationships? Are you?Will you be expected to change much? Are you being truthful to this person? Have you totally exposed all of your "unattractive" sides to them? Do you have the same or simular goals in mind? Hve you discussed your views of your future? Kids? Finances?How did they end their past relationships? How did you? These are a few of the questions you should attempt to answer for yourself first!!! May God Bless your decision !!! I am rooting for you!

I think that is plenty of time. You still don't fully know each other yet and that is what will make the marriage more exciting and interesting.


Common Sense
Nope, 1 1/2 yrs. is great timing as long as you are 18 or over.

I dont think its too soon if you really believe they are the right person for you. I have been with my fiance for a year and a half and we will be getting married this coming June. I would probably recommend living together before you get married if you dont already just to determine if you will get along well on a daily basis. Good luck!


Heath
No, it's not. My husband and I married almost exactly 2 years to the day from when we met. I would recommend some pre-marital counseling before you get married- it helps a lot!

No, I don't. It totally depends on the two people and if they are ready to make that commitment.

No it is not too soon, but what is the rush? The divorce rate in this country is around 50%. I don't know how old you are but people change as they grow up physically and mentally. Live together for a couple of years and see if the desire to get married and to stay together is still strong. Just remember, how you feel today about many things including how you feel about another person tends to change from time to time depending on your life experiences and maturity in general.


afwife
That depends on how you both feel.... some people are together 10 years and still don't need to get married.
If you feel you're both mature enough and emotionally ready for the committment, go for it. My husband and I got engaged after a year and a half,and married around the 2 year mark.


banche
No. Of course I only had two dates with my husband before we got married in Vegas. Oh it also depends on your age.

No not at all when you know you know period.
If you think it is time then do it so you can start counting down the years.

I don't think so. I met my husband in August of 87 and we were married in November of the same year and have been married since.
