Marry in haste, repent at leisure …[/quote]

I don't agree. We married after 3 years. If the guy is not proposing after 2 years, especially after late 20s, he's stringing you along.  My BFF dated hers for 10 years and he refused to get married. He was always saying next year etc., so she missed her fertility window on this guy. [/quote]

My sister married someone after knowing him just six months and it was disastrous - decades of emotional abuse:

I also have a good friends who rushed into marriage with a man who emotionally abused her for many years.

Both wish they had gotten to know their husbands better before marrying them. The men rushed the marriages probably realizing that their controlling critical real selves would become apparent if they waited too long. One even said as much later.

The stats speak for themselves - people who wait at least three years reduce risk of divorce by half. Better the Devil you know …
