48 weeks...
I met my husband on Memorial Day....we were married the Thanksgiving weekend of that same year...
That was 33 years ago...he had just come back from Vietnam..and we are still best friends.
BUT, you and cyborg sound like your relationship is very strong...and different beginnings don't mean the endings won't be just as happy!
We agreed to make the engagement intentionally long...all four seasons.
It's an old-fashioned way to be sure, and it was the date we had to take to get the best reception facility. We talked about March for a short time, but that kind of talk was more hormonal than serious. ;OD
