How old were you when you got engaged?

One week away from 26. DH was also 25. We had been dating for 2.5 years, living together for 1 year. (But we were friends since we were 18.) We were engaged for 13 months. Now married for 8.5 years.

Got engaged at 18 to a guy that was 20. We stayed engaged for nearly a year but never actually made wedding plans, and then broke up.

Got engaged to my (now) husband at age 22. He was 28. We were engaged in February and married in September...so about 7 months. We have been married 17 years.

I was 28, he was 37. Engagement was 19 months.

I was the one who pushed for the engagement. He was 37 and never married or engaged. I slightly feared he was commitment-phobic, and I didn't want to waste my time if he was. We've been married for 6 years, and so far so good.
