Originally posted by jipped genes minimum 2 years of living together and at least one of you must lose their job so you can go through a hard time after 1 year to see if you can make it through. also you must be 27 years old and the woman can be 25 they are more mature.
yup she's 25 2 y. older than me....
like i said everything was perfect from the start on. i mean there was few little things we had to work out, but overall it was perfect...
the only thing that's delaying the whole thing (i think), are my finances... if those were in check i'd do it any time...
I popped the question after about 3 years. Our finances are not exactly in check, but I wouldnt let that hold me back. There is nothing that says 1 year is too long, but for me it would be. It is usually always great for the first year, if you find a quality woman. I guess i am somewhat of a skeptic. You seem to be pretty convinced that she is the one, so there must be something convincing you.
You said that she was planing your marriage one time, but a lot of girls who are smitten ( i think that word is funny) do similar things. Have you ever seriously discussed marriage with her. have you discussed your goals and plans for the future?
I'm Just an old chunk of Coal, But I'm gonna be a DIAMOND some day.
2 - 3 years is good. The older you are the better.
Then again, at 43 I'm just not in the mood to do it again! 2 Years with my current girlfriend and she's starting to get the marriage itch now. I keep telling her that at 23 she shouldn't rush, when it's right it's right.
Come to think of it, I'll tell you that too!
I like my women like I like my coffee. Sweet, hot and from Colombia!

My ex-wife: "Why do you date a 20 year old?"
Me: "Because I can..."
Yes, that's the gf in my avatar... YES, she's less than half my age, NO I don't care...
2-3 years of dating. By this time you should really know her and vice versa. It took me almost two years to really fully understand my girlfriend and our relationship.
Marriage starts out great but over time turns into a nightmare you can't wake from. Just know that you were warned. And I'm sure you are blinded by love and nothing I can say could stop you. I wish you the best of luck in love and marriage.
I love women. That's why I'm married and my steady girlfriend lives with me. I've quit my players ways. Love is the most powerful force in the Universe. Use the power by clicking on the Rep icon.
throw any time table you have out the window, love is not something you can control. if you know she is the one then that is that.
the only thing time has to do with it is- time will tell you if you made the right choice. follow your heart bro, do that for every decision in your life and you will live a happy life.
IM TELLING U. U CAN TELL IN THE FIRST MONTH OF STEADYDATING IF U COULD BE WITH THAT PERSON FOREVER. NOW WHATEVER HAPPENS AFTER THAT TO FUCK IT UP IS A DIFFERENT STORY

after moving in with my boyfriend 2 years ago and losing my job the same day, i think this is damn good advice. living together changes EVERYTHING. there have been several times i swear i was either going to kill him or move out, and a few i thought i was going to get thrown out. and once i slept on the porch. We have managed to work everything through so far. also btw i haven't missed my half of the bills ONCE, even with long-term unemployment.
also, just in case - be familiar with the divorce laws in your state. we live in massachusetts and they are positively medieval. my BF is post-divorce and she took everything she could, including the house. three teenagers and she still doesn't work and sucks off him like a leech. if each of you can't be realistic enough to consider that you may grow apart and think it through, you probably aren't ready for marriage = that's my opinion anyway. i take it easy on him because i know how badly his ex fucked him up.
yeah, form what i have been hearing from my friends, you better live together for a while, long enough that that whole thing where you try and be perfect for eachother wears off, from my friends experience you'd be surprised how much someone changes after they get real comfortable, besides, it's not smart if your in debt and what not to get married, in my opinion it would be best to start with a clean slate financially, marriage is simply more debt in my opinion, if you love someone, then it doens't matter if or when you get married.
