Years in Getting Married

The years are of no importance. It is based on what the two people want out of the relationship. One may never want to get married and the other may want to. In which case somebody needs to make a decision about where their relationship is going and should it continue, which may be a painful road. If they both want marraige then they set the timetable. I think it is important for people to let their partners know what their expectation is of the relationship so that there are no misunderstandings. You can't just assume marraige is where people are headed just because their in a relationship.

For me I don't look at the years, on how many years they have been on a relationship. The important thing is they can handle the marriage life. If they are mature enough to handle some difficult trials in having a life time partner. If they are financially stable and can sustain the needs of having a family. Then they can married anytime.

I'm not really sure. It all depends on how long you both knew each other. some people know one another for years before getting married. Some meet each other and get married right away. I knew my husband for three years before we got married.

It depends on the couple. My parents knew each other only 6 weeks. I dated my ex-husband 5 years (I should have learned) and I knew my current husband about a year before we married.

I would say it would be unwise to marry less than five years into the relationship. when we get married next year, we will have been together for nine years. which is a little longer than I would have expected it to take, but for some years now we've known it that it was a case of when rather than if.

For me, years is not really important. As long as both of the parties is ready to settle down for good then they can marry each other.

I don't think there is a right answer to this question. I think people should get married when they are ready. Some people get married after only a few months, and they are happy. Others do the same and they are miserable. Some people get married after a few years, and they are happy, others do the same and they are miserable. It all depends on the couple.
