mine, i’ve been dating for a year but met him 3 years ago.
I’ve been with my current computer for over a year now.
Over 20 years. We probably met through mutual acquaintances 30ish years ago, but that is lost to the mists of time.
Met in 1986. Began dating in 1989. Married in 1994.
Dated for 4 years. Been married for 45 years.
You win.
Married my high school sweetheart after 7 years and this year we are having 21 anniversary, so 28 years.
I think maybe around 1990-91. She was a good friend’s little sister’s best friend. Go married in 97.
ps. I think @Today@lemmy.world are showing our age just a little
We’re not old, we’re experienced. I love that I lived a ‘be home by dark’ childhood without a microchip.
30 years. Been married for 22.
I met him when I was 16, dated him for 6 years, and have been married to him for just about 50 years.
11 years together, married for 5, poly for 8. Met when we were 18, first day of university.
I met her just before May Day in 2009. Two days later we were going steady. Three months after that, engaged. A year after we met I moved in with her and a year after she proposed we were married. Well, church married.
We were protesting for marriage equality and refused to file a marriage certificate until it was the law of the land; but we had kids before that happened and then we got busy and we didn’t actually get around to that part until the pandemic lockdowns. So ten years after we got married we turned in our marriage license.
I met her end of 2020 and we stated dating on the spot while I was on a business trip to South Korea during the pandemic.
21 years ago, married for 13 years.
Known 35 years next month. Married 35 years in November.
35 years too! Dated for 25.0 years, married for 9.6 years.
fast marriage
If you know, you know.
Not like in my case. I joke that Stockholm Syndrome takes time ;-)
Together for 10 years, known for 25 years.
About 40 years. We met for real when she was in 9th grade and I was in 10th grade. We started dating when she was 15 and I was 16. We got married 32 years ago.
Edit: Since it looks like we’re the oldest couple in the thread so far: first date was October 5, 1986.
I think @Quilotoa@lemmy.ca has you beat with ~49 years
