Survey-Type Question?

I've asked this question to friends and family, now I'd like to hear from you!

How long do you (men and women) feel is long enough to be together before getting engaged? Providing that you're both "on the same page" (aka, you've talked about it, you're mature and have accomplished stuff in your own life, etc...)

Example, I've heard 2 years is long enough to wait for an engagement before moving on.

So, your thoughts??

    engagement is one thing - marriage is another. you can get engaged anytime......but that doesn't mean you can't call off the wedding if you find out it's not the right match for you.
