How Long Should You Wait For Marriage After You Start Dating?

[@twinsmom8]

Tamar is right. It doesn't take that long for a person 35 and up to know if they want to marry you. I was 33 when I started dating my husband. We started talking about marriage at four months and was engaged four months later (total of 8 months). Planned a big wedding so we didn't get married until a year later, but we've been married 22 years now. 😍

22 years is long time think about the women he had in those 22 years without you knowing 😂

We have been together for 12 yrs. Marrying him was one of my best decisions in life. He is everything to me. I feel so Blessed to have a family with him.

[@kengy1991]

I agree with Tamar. 6 to 12 months is good if you are over 30 years old. I think our society just is not as mature as we used to be which is sad. I got married when I was 24 and my wife was 25 (we are both 31 now). Would have gotten married sooner but I was still in school. Once you’re out of school and have a career, it shouldn’t take you too long to decide.

[@bphrealestateinvestors2417]

Waiting at lest a year (4 seasons, all the holidays and maybe even a major life event) is a reasonable amount of time to decide if you’d like to marry someone. But then you’ll need at least another 4-6 months of runway until the wedding. See how they are as a Fiancé and not just a boyfriend/girlfriend. Hopefully, before the wedding day, you’ll have a fuller picture of the person, their life and their family.

It doesn't matter if you're older or younger. It takes time to really get to know someone. I'd say about six months to judge their character another six months to know if you're fully compatible and then a year after to know if everything you've learned about that person remains consistent. So two years.

Men KNOW what they want and they will only do what we, as women, allow. You ever wonder why a man can date a women for 5 or 10 years and never propose? She even has a few children for him. Yet, as soon as they break up, he’s married within a year to his new chick. He knew he didn’t want to marry woman #1. But SHE ALLOWED him to waste her time and he married who he really wanted. My husband made it known very early on that he was in search of his wife. I respected that. We dated for 1 year. He proposed a few months into year 2. 💍 This year will be 9 years that we’ve been married, who years together.

[@typeqtv]

Everybody has a “timeframe”. But I’m not putting my all into someone who can’t wait if necessary. 6-12 months ain’t enough time to know everything about a person and be their forever. That’s just love without logic. Which is fine, but that’s not a risk everyone is willing to take. If you just “have to” be married, find someone with that same mindset. But you should want more than just the title of marriage imho.

[@cheyannedaniels6636]

This comment!!!

[@dinkyboss]

A year is definitely enough time to know what a person is about. Now I would never suggest walking down the isle with sad person as I believe you should do counseling or something before marriage. But if you don’t know someone well enough after a year of dating to even consider the possibility of marriage you’re just wasting that other persons time assuming they made it clear they were looking for commitment.

[@konye618]

You can date someone for 10 years and still need more time to get to know them. There is never enough time. But there are a few key things that you will find out within 3 months that should guide whether that is your forever person or not

[@87Lohan]

I think 6 - 12 months is more than enough time but I don’t think it’s about ‘timeframes’ like you said but it’s about if you want to be married or not or if you want to marry that person or not. It’s quite a straightforward thing that people complicated. If you want to marry that person you’re already committed to doing the work so whether I get married after 3 months or 3 years it’s whatever. The commitment is there

[@boma7960]

She’s an idiot. She’s talking to common non rich folk. Imagine people listening to her nonsense and letting go of a good man because he can’t afford a ring. Only to leave for a rich man that gives everything and cheats like hell. SMH.. a single woman giving advice is cute.

[@zakiyadorsey0819]

From meeting to proposal, I feel like a year is a good time, I see you in every season but the thing is have these intentional conversations and meaningful relationships over the year don't just be dating with no intention because you won't learn much about each other. And I wouldn't say "if we aren't married in a year then I'm leaving" but after that year I will need to evaluate to see if this is something I want to continue.

[@toyita4431]

People have to be ready for marriage...it's not about a timeframe...it's simply is the person ready for the commitment, are they in right head space, are they financially stable etc. My husband and I dated for YEEEAAARRSSS...Bur we started young and finally got married in our 30s. We both had to grow up and we both needed to live. Break up to make ups. Once we were engaged we were married within 7 months. But if I had started dating him in my 30s I would have NEVA waited as long because by then you need to have your life together and know what you want and if not move on.

[@suekebee6553]

Then they shouldn't be dating if they not in the right head space. My opinion is that's toxic. Even if they're upfront and just wanna have sex...leaving your spirit in several people is wild. Not a right or wrong answer just my opinion 🤷

[@kerbyluc9797]

My husband proposed to me after 6 months and we got married 6 months later and been together for close to 7yrs. I was 29 and my husband was 32. It was Odd to our friends and family but it felt right!

Here's the thing our parents generation and grandparents they didnt have drawn out relationships and then got married.

It obviously took not much for them to say in that short matter of time that they wanted to get married and to each other. To each is own the length of time because marriage is supposed to be forever but its not all the time people as they get older grow and sometime not together so what youre feeling at 22 you not feeling at 42 and thats why communication is important. People get comfortable and content and take advantage of what they have. Dont take anyone for granted cause they could be here today gone tomorrow whether by death or by divorce.

Not to be rude but I think Tamar is giving selfish advice from only her perspective. Also I don’t think people think the way she does. Also in my little opinion I can see why she is no longer married

[@dinkyboss]

Her ex husband was literally abusive bro. Also it’s selfish to waste years of peoples time. No one has infinite life after all

[@shinsukecorbin425]

There’s no real time limit on marriage because every couple is different..Either you wait out the time or move along

[@phantomzxro1]

@@dinkyboss Every relationship is different, so I don't ever think a one size fit all rule should be applied to a timeframe. I think it's more of a personal thing of what your timeline is.

My husband proposed 2 weeks in. We got married a year later, been married 23 years. But honestly you can never all there is to know about anyone, if I had it to do it over, I would've waited not because of him but because of me things I didn't realize about myself, what marriage really meant, I had alot of selfishness to work out and I think some heartbreak could've been avoided. I recommend that if your a follower of Christ - no your purpose and assignment, I believe therapy is also good too it helps to walk through past trauma, heal and reveal hidden issues so your not bringing all that crap into a relationship. We were both naive getting married it's only by Gods grace we have maintained a now healthy happy marriage.

[@caroloses8968]

Depends on your age. I agree that after a certain age you should know pretty quick. If there's no proposal..... Well they don't want to marry you and they are just killing time until they find the one they will marry

[@IAMDJEPIC]

Exactly there is no set timeline. And if people listen to others it makes them feel they need to stick to some timeline or something is wrong. That’s why so many people end good relationships prematurely or some even marry too early just so they can fit someone else’s timeline and requirements so they can feel normal. Just do you and don’t just conform to someone else’s opinions

[@jordynsmom4564]

I think this conversation kept getting intertwined at first I thought she was saying you have a year to met someone before they purpose but in the end I when she said just date I am thinking she meant after you ask someone to marry you then the clocks starts and we need to be married in a year. I was definitely confused though 😂😂

[@1CristylJ]

[@sweeetisme]

She was definitely having a different conversation than everyone else, including everyone in the comments lol.

[@praise2608]

She was saying both, she has also said this on The Real when she was a host. She feels the man should know in about a year and then after a short amount of time you should be married. She has picked with husband that they got married 3 years after he proposed

[@TheMariemarie16]

If over 30 within 1 year I would expect at least a verbal agreement that marriage was coming but by 2 years I would need a proposal. Not staying engaged more than 1 year.

There is no set time, idc how old u are. Some ppl need a lot of time because they're unsure in themselves...so how can they be sure in wat they want in anything else, especially relationships And unfortunately, we now live in a very narcissistic world. Everyone is about self. Put self first. But love is SELFLESS!!! pray for discernment for God to bless u with the one for u and u will know when they're the one the moment u feel the connection When u have a soul connection , time is obsolete. I met my husband and immediately I KNEW he's the one! I felt it in my spirit And we have been inseparable ever since we met basically.❤️ When it's real divine love, the only thing you'll be thinking about is u never want to be apart from this person, this love... ever. It's like heaven on earth❤️🙏😇

[@RoseStarr]

I think if you're young 18-25 you can wait as long as you want but once you start hitting around 35 I don't have 5 years to date a man while he figure out when he want to propose so I'll give a guy like 3 years

[@janedough6410]

By 30, if there's no discussion of marriage in the last decade; move on to the next and do 2 year intervals. Date people who want the same.

[@quentinjones6877]

I'm 25 but never been in a relationship, I feel like it'll take me time to know if I want marriage

5 years for me

[@RoseStarr]

@Jay Bah and that's fine. The man can want to wait 5 years but the woman is free to leave if waiting that long don't work for her. Because what if she wait around and you decide you don't want to get married? That's why I said at MY age I'm not waiting 5 years.

[@chillywillie6283]

The worse thing you can do is rush into a marriage with a person you don’t really know. They are making relationship crime dramas with tragic endings based on people rushing into marriages with people they didn’t really know. Being married is not really that important. Being safe and able to live without drama and fear is.

[@Zuriel2703]

This is such an important conversation, but the fact that they cut the first guy off just because he has a different opinion from theirs is just off-setting.

The point is if your not ready to get married don’t ask. Meaning: If you are not where you want to be in life don’t ask. If your money situation is not where you want it before you take on a wife don’t ask. If you’re trying to wait and see if the person is down for you ( has your back). Don’t ask. You are still trying to get to know the person Don’t Ask. Some people be engaged for 5-15 years and it’s ridiculous. 😂😂😂😂
