that's hardly relevant.. XH and I didn't have an argument for about 10 years.. OH and I have barely had a disagreement after more than 4 years... some people just don't argue!

If you feel it is right for you OP ask her.

I know someone just had their 15th wedding anniversary who met and married in 3 months.. they hadn't even spent the night together when they married.. 9 children later they are still together!

Not everybody does major arguments.

No, they don't but if the OP has, then it would be a tick for it perhaps not being too early.

In all honesty I would not feel ready to marry someone I had only known for 7 months. To me in that amount of time the initital buzz of a relationship is just beginning to settle and it is then that a couple start to get to know each other.

I am an extremely cautious person by nature though and I wouldn't feel that I really knew someone until I had known them around a couple of years. I could not make that level of commitment to someone until I felt I really knew them.

There is no right or wrong answer to your question though OP. We all have different approaches to relationships. Do what feels right for you and I wish you all the best.

Why? If you've had a major argument, then it might mean that you've got over the loved up stage. If they haven't then, yes, they might never argue but it doesn't mean the question is irrelevant.

Because lots of people don't do arguing..

It is like asking if you have broken wind or belched in front of them.. some people do but some don't ever.. therefore it is an irrelevant question.

Lots of people are still together after having lots of children. It doesn't mean they are happy. I would guess that lots of them aren't happy but are kept together for financial reasons.

Really, you aren't listening so I can't be bothered to argue.

Well these are happy, not together due to children or finances or any other reason than they want to be together

LOL!! You have to agree to differ..

rather than argument, disagreement might have been a more appropriate word. You are bound to disagree about things at some point, and I would think it is important to know how one handles such situation before committing to a life together forever.

Saying that, there are no right and wrong answers and nowadays, getting engaged doesn't mean you have to get married the day after.
