First off, congrats on being mature and responsible enough to wait so long. The correct answer is, the right time is when you both are ready and want it to happen. There is no set time. When you are both willing and ready, it will happen. Don't force it.
Hope this helped.

Have you prepared for a lifelong committment? Have you discussed finances and where you both are and how will the 2 combine? Will both be responsible for paying off one's previous debt,car payment,bad credit, etc? What has been decided about religion? Are you the same,equally yoked? It will cause either a problem or a blessing to come if you are not equal.How about kids,when to have them,how to raise them,who will stay home or both work and when will you save enough to have the 6-8 wks financially worry free for the post baby time? If one or both has other kids now, how will discipline be handled? That should be done by the blood parent but with husband and wife making their own home rules and consequences that are fair to all whether part-time or full-time kids. Who's parents will you visit on holidays? It can get hairy, believe me! You may not be near(emotionally or address-wise) a parent now but things can change over the years, prepare yourselves.Who will take care of housework and yardwork,car maintence,shoppping? Have you set a budget? You need to be free to set one together and never deliniate from it.Savings for emer.,cars,vacations,babies,home, ins. for home-cars-home furnishings-life,home maint., etc has to be included in the beginning or you will blow the extra and not have what you need when you need it.What are your personal goals and his? Do you want to always stay near your family or do you want to have international jobs or move around with a certain co? There are more but you get the idea. I would make a good guess that you haven't done this yet! I pray that you do and that you will take care of it waaay before any wedding plans are made. You just never know the person until you discuss in depth on a regular basis and especially about the important aspects that will impact your and your future children's life! I don't know if you believe in God or not but it is a really good time to be praying before you make a major decision that can affect you in so many ways.Ask God to prepare you and your intended and ask Him if this is your true life-long spouse.Best wishes and I wish someone had talked to me this way many yrs ago.

I want to let you know that i just recently went through a divorce so.......You just have to ask yourself do you LOVE that other person can you live without them being around; how much stuff do you do with each other. just ask simple questions don't look to hard because it will only confuse you more, when my ex-husband asked me after 5 years of dating i was so happy, and to this day i am still happy that he asked, but just a little more careful now after knowing what has happened in our relationship i just watch more carefully; so look around can you see yourself being with anyone else; what do you see in your future; marriage, kids, etc; talk to each other about your future and make sure that you both have the same types of realistic goals in life.

I think you need to have some kind of casual discussion about getting married before you ask someone. Like a "someday, if we got married" kinda thing. You need to know where the other person is in their side of the relationship.

You can plan the time and place in advance; or you can let it flow spontaneously -- both work. BUT if you plan too tightly, you may temporarily loose your boldness (or your memory) at the right time; if you let if flow unplanned, you may stumble over "foolish" words -- BUT neither is fatal -- ENJOY and CONGRATULATIONS.

Are you really in love? Do you want to spend the rest of your life together? Are your goals basically the same? Age doesn't really matter.
