My love and I have been together for three years, and we talk about getting married all the time, but we're not engaged. To be honest, I think a lot of the reason for this is because I don't have the money to buy him a ring yet, but there are other reasons for us to not be engaged as well. Mind you, that's just for us.
But I've noticed that long engagements are becoming more popular now that I'm in University. One of the couples I know has been engaged for a year and a half now, and I don't think they'll get married until next August. Another of my friends has been engaged for a year now, and they won't tie the knot for a couple more years.
Don't worry what people say. You're in love, and that's wonderful!
