We got married on the exact day we met 7 years prior...so together for over 9 years now
Reason we left it so long is with us being young when we met + DH is not Aussie (well he is now!) but we wanted to be sure that staying in Oz was the right thing to do + alot of red tape (ie not anting to get hitched just for a visa too!) + I wanted to buy a place before spending $$ on a wedding so that all took time!
xh & I met in Aug 03, he went away for just over a year to "find himself" up north in Dec 03, he turned up on my doorstep in Feb 05 to stay a few days until he found somewhere (he never left & I was too scared to ask him to go), in June 05 he proposed, Nov 05 we were married, May 08 we separated, Aug 09 we were divorced.
Should have followed advice of friends the day I met him and stayed away from him. Also should have followed the intense gut instinct the day before & the day of my wedding and NOT done it. But when it all started going to hell in a handbasket, I believed in my vows and I tried to save it, shame he was already in somebody else's bed at this point & didn't want to save it.
Now I'm more wary, even though I was brought up with strict morals, I may even go against everything I've been brought up to believe and not marry again, but live "in sin". xh was the first and only guy I've ever lived with. Bet that bit shocked you all
