    Well I am not married or even engaged yet (although the cards are there for engagment).

    Met when I was 16 him 19.
    moved in together when I was 16 (a week before I turned 17) he was 19 still.
    I'm now 18 and he'll be 21 on the 7th of June and we are still living together with no problems and will be getting a joint bank account next week hopefully.
    Do not know when we will get engaged and then married but it's definatly a possibiity for the future.

    Met him when I was 17, engaged and married at 18. Still married and i'm 39. Far too young though. If any of my kids came home and told me they were getting married i'd lock them up and not let them out until they were at least 25!!

  • Met hubby for the 1st time in October 1998. I was 18 he was 23.

    Bumped into him again February 1999 - something clicked - sounds really naff I know and I really cannot explain it better than "clicked"! Started going out together.

    October 1999 he proposed - MIL & FIL "suggested" a long engagement

    Novemeber 2000 baby no 1 arrived :D

    August 2001 got married. I was 21 he was 26.

    June 2002 baby no 2 arrived :D

    November 2004 baby no 3 arrived :D *btw was around this time MIL finally "warmed" to me!!!

    We have managed to fit quite a lot in to our time together :rotfl:

    Moved in together after just over 4 months of first meeting

    I got married when I was 18 about two months before my 19th birthday and we've now been married 9 years and 3 months with one DD (dear daughter).

    I hope your tough times weren't to difficult
