There is no set time. However, I think it's good to know someone for at least a year. There are always little things like personality quirks and big things too that fail to surface in a relationship if you don't date for very long. I think marriage is a pretty big commitment and shouldn't be entered into lightly. You should know the person you plan to marry.

I don't think there is a rule or anything. I know of people being togeth 3 months and getting married and have be married for over 10 years. My husband and I met we were married 1 1/2 years later. Now, we have to beautiful children. There should not be a time frame.

There is no set time for dating before marriage. I know a couple that dated for over 13 yrs before they got married. It all depends on the couple and how you feel. Marriage is a HUGE step, make sure you are really ready for it. But just think, the longer you are in the relationship, the better you get to know each other. The better you know each other is the key to a long lasting marriage.

You don't get into a relationship with a someone you want to marry. You simply have to decide in the first meeting if you can live with this person & chage the person.
If you know that you can not change the person in question but are dying to live with that person, for whatever reason, you should be ready to change your ownself
Remember no time period can ever show you the true personality of a person if the person in question wants to hide it from you
Its you who has to makes the decision..... take it or leave it
Well if you just want to have fun with people....well relationship is the best word to use for disguise

Depends on you. In Hollywood, it is about 15 minutes but the marriage only lasts about an hour.
Why rush it? Let the relationship grow and mature. Rushing into marriage is a good way to end in divorce. It takes time to really get to know someone and if you intend to be married for a lifetime you really do need to know them well.

As long as it takes to get to really know each other. There is no set number on that question sweetie. Each situation is different. However, I do think that anything within a year of "first meeting" somebody is just too soon. You havent met the "real them" yet. You've only been dating and seeing that person on their best behavior.

Being with a Person threw all seasons thats 12 months:
If you can't see nothing wrong in that person, check his personal business, investagate him and see who he his what he do, is he a mommy boy, see if has a background of badness.
Be Careful and Check Him out all the way!
What good on the OUT side may not be good in the inside!

There's no legal requirement. But I would suggest at least a year before you really know, it also depends on how much you've been through together - whether you've faced crises etc.

there's no real time line. i was engaged 4 months after meeting my fiance. it's about being ready and in love and wanting to get married. if it's right, you know it.
