If you were gonna get married, how long do you think you should date before you know someone well enough to get engaged?

I say 2 years.

Depends on experience.
First time. A few years.

After years of married life the time can be shortened.

Little time is enough if you're both truly aware and have decades of domestic life.

I knew someone that knew someone a week and got married and lasted 25 yrs until the guy died.

@DoubleRings It is risky these days. But back then he was 60 something and she was 57. Those were maybe better people from those times.?? Also there was the fact she and his son were acquainted from where she worked for many years. Although he wasn't very close with his dad.

I know much more about all their stories than I imagine any of the 3 know by themselves. It's a crazy world alright. Lol
