My fiance and I dated for 3 years before he proposed. That feels about right to me. It was long enough that we know each other very well and we can make it through tough times, but not so long that I ever found myself thinking "Where's the ring already?" I know some couples who have gotten engaged after just a few months or even a few weeks, and others who have been dating for much longer than my fiance and I and are still not engaged. I know the right time will vary for every couple, but do you think there are limits where it becomes "too short" or "too long"?
