I have been dating this wonderful LDS guy. His family absolutely loves me as well. We have so much in common and understand eachother so well. We don't argue either. We have gotten frustrated at each other but only talked it out. We have shared things with each other and done things with each other that we haven't in past relationships. I never thought I'd get married before our 1 yr anniversary. But how can I put a time limit on a relationship? If you know, you know right?

It's not really the length of time that matters but the way you've spent the time you've had together (although generally less than 6 months is too short). You could have dated every other weekend for three years and still not really know each other, or you could have seen each other for hours everyday - that's a different story.
If you think you really know each other, six months isn't too short. Believe it or not, that was a common time period only a couple of decades ago. I do recommend that you take a marriage preparation course just to cover how to handle unexpected issues that could come up during the marriage. I hear that "The Road to Cana" is a good one.

I would have married my husband after 3 months. This is when we moved in together, and I would have never moved in with someone I didn't plan on marrying. By 6 months time, I was absolutely sure. My parents got married after only 3 months of dating, they just celebrated their 34th anniversary. I don't think there's a time limit per se - but some people do tend to make better decisions than others. Experience, self-awareness, knowledge of other people all play a role.

I'm also LDS. My husband isn't, but I am.
Anyway, I think it depends on the situation. I don't think the majority of people are ready to get married shortly after dating or meeting, but there are the exceptions! My husband and I married after only two months and that was almost ten years ago. We're still very happy, very in love, and we have four beautiful children together.
For me, I knew it was the right thing to do. I knew in my heart I had met the person I was going to spend the rest of my life with and that wasn't going to change if we married then or waited a year. We knew we were in love and wanted to start our life together, and we wanted to start a family. I think you need to ask yourself if you're ready for marriage and if this truly the right person for you. If the answer is yes, then you should get married.
Best of luck!

I think that all depends on how old you are and where you are at in your life.
The fact that you mentioned he is LDS...are you? Is that a red flag? Do you see it becoming a problem? How involved is he in his spiritual life and where are you at in yours?
We sometimes see the things we want to see and even if we see or feel something that is not quite right, it is sometimes easy to push it aside with the word But .. If there are any Buts hovering on the edge, it's worth looking into it deeper.
If you feel totally confident about it, go for it! Good luck

Are you LDS too? If not, you'll have to go thru a series of classes and a baptizm, and keep in mind, your family will not be able to go to the wedding. If you are LDS, then I would say go for it. Your faith leads you to believe that when you find "the one", to follow your heart. There are many strong feelings and devotions in the LDS world, and if you feel like you could love this person forever, then go for it. If you both feel the same, of course!

No way, six months is not long enough to know someone's quirks and habits and to be absolutely certain that you can tolertate those quirks and habits without nagging and whining about them for the rest of your life. Just because you've done and shared things in this relationship that you haven't in past one's is no indication that you "should" get married now.

honestly
I don't think there should be a time limit on any relationship
if you truly love this person, share a lot in common, family gets along good, and feel you can spend your life with this person, i know i would marry that person

I asked my wife to marry me 6 weeks after we first started dating and we were married less than a year later.
That was 25 years ago.
