how's that working out for you?
I haven't got on with it yet since I'm not ready to get married. But it is the way it goes in my community and always has been. This way, at least we can have a clue that the other side is serious to get married too, right next to still wanting to have a long engagement time to know each other, which gives higher possibilities to have a successful relationship.
Are you looking for a serious long term/ever lasting relationship or are you looking for dating?
