It's probably better that you someone before you dated them. You got to see the real person. No hiding anything from friends. Sometimes people put on a front when they're dating. You probably already have everything out in the open.

I met my husband in January of 1997. I didn't see him again until January of 2001, and yet, when I saw his girlfriend, I'd ask about him, and he would ask about me. We had a few dates after that, but dating never quite worked, even though we liked ech other, there was too much else going on for each of us. We started dating seriously late in 2003, and were engaged about three and a half months later, and got married in 2005. I can't imagine life without him now. But that's not a reflection of how long we dated, it's a reflection of the comittment we made to our relationship, and to making sure things work. We share goals and values, dreams and desires, and that's what make things work.

what is really realistical now days-if you know you are both in love with each other-but remember that marriage is meant to be for a lifetime commitment!!!! some don't take it too seriously they skip the dating scene and just get married and come to relize a couple months down the road that the person they thought they knew was nothing or is nothing like that now- and end up getting a divorce-so make sure you think it through before you jump the gun and marry him even if you knew him for 3yrs prior to dating-there may still be somethings you don't know about him like him beleifs- his intrests-how close he is to his mother-to his dirty habbits!!

NO!
If u both love each other and feel u can't live without each other theirs no wrong time nor time limits.
my mother dated for 6 weeks was married for 11 years till he past away they'd still b married; i met a woman on line we dated on line we met after 5 months we married 2 mouths later and have r ups and downs however i really love her and plan to spend the rest of my life with her.

Were you close friends during that time and truely know eachother? If the answer is yes, then it's realistic, but if you didn't really get to know him till you started dating that's a bit fast.

it really depends on how well you know them. If you were like close best friends its more realistic, but just an aquaintance? im not so sure because there is so much you still dont know about each other (im guessing)

sometimes it works. it is probably a good idea to wait a bit..... sometimes when you know someone as a friend and love them, things change a bit when it turns romantic. I know people you leapt into things and have wonderful, lasting marriages though, so only you two really know for sure. good luck!

under some circumstances, yes, but I'd suggest a long term engagement to make sure you work well together as a couple

no, not long enough. Dating is very different than just knowing someone.
