How long should you know someone before getting engaged?

True enough. Love is a continues learning. You will never know the true person even a lifetime. WHat's important is you share the same views and you respect your own individuality. Everything will turn great for the both of you.

i think there is no limit of this because a person have more thing to know and for it we can spend our whole life. so i you find a person's nature nice and his or her attitude towards you is good than it's enough for you

I think it really depends on the couple. To some, 3 monthes is enough, but not for most. I think about 8 monthes is enough. That gives you time to discover some habits or just things about her that would not come out in 3 or 4 which might really bother you.

i think a year will do. if i spend most of my time with him and get to know the real him inside. i dont want to be surprised of what he really is when were living together and found out that we're not really compatible together. i wanted to know the real him before it's to late. im not discouraging you but give it time to get to know the person.

I think it depends on a lo of things; age, maturity, place you are in your life and if you are ready. My husband and I got engaged 4 months after we started dating, and we were married 4 months after that. BUt we were 30 when we met, we knew what we wanted, didn't need to mess around and we just knew it was right. It's different for everyone.
