social experiment - when did you start dating your S.O.? And how many years have you been together now.
I am having a discussion about when relationship-minded people usually start relationships as opposed to those only interested in more casual relationships.
let's see what the data says...
I'll start.
Started dating in August (met in late June). It's been 7+ years now! (married).
editing to add - please specify the MONTHS that these things occurred. the timing of the months is more important that the years.
thank you in advance!

This is almost identical to our story! Except in ours, we had a little thing at the end of senior year, went our separate ways and 6 years later got back together on FB. That was in 2007, moved in a year later, engaged in 2010, married in 2011!
