Think for some, it takes a shorter time, for some, it's much longer. But yeah, Jamie & I dated for about 3.5 years, before we got engaged. :) Hey Loong,

I guess the problem is - if one party is ready and the other is not, it would lead to resentment in future. As for whether it is a bad decision... I think the most important thing is that we learn from our previous decisions. The lesson is not the destination, but the journey. Oh, and btw, thanks for your kind compliments in your first 'love letter'. Have a nice day! Hey snglguy,
