do you know anyone who met and married within a month? a week? a day?

what's the briefest time someone you know gave it and it worked out?

i have no answer to this: all my relatives left it years if not decades and almost none of my friends have actually got round to it at all

My grandparents got married two weeks after they met. They've been married 50+ years now.

my mom got pregnant with me pretty quickly and then married my dad. I'd guess maybe 4-5 months btwn meeting and marriage? She thinks it happened the first time they had sex, too! They are still together, happy, and the best parents ever.

My parents got married after 5 or 6 months of dating. They knew each other a bit longer but my mom hated him. They've been married 24 years.

Judging by the span of time, L-dawg may have been conceived the first time me & his momma had sex, which would also happen to be the first time I ever had sex. We didnae get married though.

A friend of mine told me the morning after I met my wife that I would marry her. He had hit on her first, but got "a feeling" when he saw us talking. I had a feeling he was correct. But Ursi and I didn't marry until about two years later.

My friend has sinced stopped drinking, and tells me he thus no longer has the direct psychic hotline to God. On the other hand, he no longer wraps motorcycles around trees, so he figures this is a fair exchange.

Hmm a friend of mine married within a month or so. They are still married and happy.

But does anyone know anyone who got married so quickly for some reason other than getting preggo?

My parents were not pregnant!

Ally, You're older than you thought! Ok, maybe not, but 5-6 months isn't as crazy as less than one month.

My mom was pregnant with me for 11 months, this is an actual true fact, she is like an elephant.

The interweb distorts the definition of 'met' potentially doesn't it? I knew somebody at University who'd got engaged without actually meeting his fiancee - her parents took one look at him and put him on the next plane home apparently.

My best mate met his wife and they got married within what I think was only a few months. Theyve been happily married well over 2 years now, I guess some people just get it right and know it immediately.

um, i went once to the 50th anniversary party for a couple who met on the train from NYC to LA (must have been '41) got off in in LA and got married the same day.

a friend of mine married someone after two weeks. Musta been lust, i mean love - they did not have a language in common so both ended up having to take language lessons to communicate.
