Spinoff to Living With DH Before Marriage...

How long had you been dating before you moved in together and were you already engaged?

We moved in together about 2.5 years after dating. We had gotten engaged about a month before we moved in together. We already had the plans for me to move in with him, just didn't know I was getting engaged first!

Started dating in 1996 (when you were all in HSChat Icon ), engaged in Dec 1998 moved in Nov. 1999 a few months before we were married (Jan. 200). It was not my choice - I wanted to live together longer before we got married since I lived with someone before that & it didn't work out.

We didn't live together before marriage. I moved into his place after we were married.

Ummmm... some of us graduated, gotten their MS and were working for 3 years by thenChat Icon

I was 33 when DH and I met. I had to live at home because my father was handicapped from a stroke. There was no way I was ever going to "live with" someone. I didn't need to split the rent with a boyfriend and well, what would I do about Dad and what if it didn't work out? It never made sense in my situation. If anything it made more sense that I lived upstairs in a father/daughter house and saved $$$$.
We were engaged a year and four months after we met and married exactly one year later.

I moved in with DH a few months after we got engaged more so to ease the transition for my father and brother who grew very dependent on me. I didn't want them to go through such a sudden change right after the wedding.

We moved in together after 7 months, and got engaged a few weeks later. I would not have moved in with him if the engagement wasn't imminent, and he had to get out of his apt. a month sooner than planned, or we would have been engaged first. We got married 8 months after getting engaged.

Funny, we were talking today about how our marriage has been longer than the amount of time we knew each other before. Tomorrow will be 18 months since our wedding.

Hmm ... we started dating Dec 1996, I moved in Nov 2002 and we got engaged Dec 2002.

I had my own apartment since 1987 so it was a bit of an adjustment ... in some ways, still is!! LOL!

We moved in together after 10 months of dating, we got engaged 6 months later and married 7 weeks after our engagement. We got married quickly because we were moving to Ireland.

Re: Spinoff to Living With DH Before Marriage...

We were dating a year and a half and we got engaged, about 2 months later we offically moved in together.

But honestly we kind of lived together before that - but had our own places.
