I'm all for long engagements, though. A significant rock can go a long way towards incentivizing patience in situations where one partner may feel more ready than the other-- it worked on me for 2.5 years, and it wouldn't have taken a lawyer to undo if things had gone south
We are only on our one year right now, I just take it day to day but somethings need to change on her end before I even think about getting married to her. My relationships don't last very long anyways so this too may pass.
