Neither is correct. Meeting is an event that occurs at a point in time. Two months is a duration. If you say, "He treated me well in the first two months after we met," that would be OK. If you met periodically for two months, "He treated me well when we met for two months," would be OK.
The second one is lacking an object: "when we knew" what?

Neither of them are correct.
a better rephrasing would be, "He treated me well for the first 2 months we knew each other."

Strictly speaking neither of them is correct.

They don't really sound correct to me.

What is this, a case of syntax analysis? They both sound the same to me...
