I seriously knew she was "the one" the moment I laid eyes on her (I even told my best friend, "I'm going to marry that girl,") but I had to date her for two years to make sure she wasn't crazy first.

2 months 1 week from first date to wedding day. Being with him just felt right from day one. I've been in long term relationships and engaged twice and had a sinking feeling and a knot in my throut and stomach, even though I knew both guys a long time, one for 12 years dated for 7yrs, the other 9 yrs dated one yr. When it's right you'll know. We'll be married 1 month in 4 days:)

Dated for 3 years and 3 months, then was engaged for 9 months. Will have been married for 2 years in October.
I knew she was the one by the end of the first year.

We have been together 7 years and are getting married soon. In my opinion it is better off to wait longer before you get married that way you can really get to know the person and their ups and downs before you devote your entire life to them. When people rush and get married soon they have only got to experience the new, exciting, try to win the persin over part of a realtionship. You may find you dont like what the person really turns into once things have been going on after a couple years and it gets more comfortable. So waiting is always safe.

We were married about 10 months after we started dating. I asked her to marry me 6 weeks after our first date. That was 25 years ago.

We dated for 6 years and were engaged for 2 1/2.
I knew he was the one when I'd come home from spending time with him (when we were just friends) and couldn't stop smiling. I couldn't think about anything else.
Everything else was perfect from that point on. We had the same goals in life. The same things were important to us (family, careers, etc) We could talk to eachother candidly about anything. We laugh together ALL the time. If we ever did fight, he would treat me with an unbelievable amount of respect.
Those points were what made me realize that our marriage was going to be successful.

Dated for almost a year, I knew about two months into the relationship that he was the one. Been married 37 years this December. Love that guy more each day we are together.

My husband and I dated for 6mo. total then got married. We have been married for almost 9 years and have three beautiful children. We are very happy. I don't think that you have to date someone for 5 years to know. I knew that he was the one for me. But I have also known people who have dated for years and still got divorced. I guess you just have to use your on judgement. Hope this helps.

we dated about six months and moved in together. we didnt actually get married legally until five years ago. as for 'the one' i am not sure there is such a thing. in my opinion if you wait for some perfect match, you may never have anyone. i believe you find someone you enjoy and that shares your beliefs. if both of you are committed and work hard at being married, you will do fine. no relationship is perfect.
