What is the big deal in a 7yr courtship. The age a couple started may determine how long it takes to propose. I dated my hubby for 10yrs. I started dating him at 16 and he was 19. We eventually got married 26 and 29. We needed to finish school,get jobs and be financially secure.
Pls stop making girls believe they have to have a ring in 6mths.
The age a relationship start matters. I won't have expected a proposal at 18/19.
We have been married 7yrs with 2kids and I'm glad I waited because that is the best man for me.
