We had just gotten engaged and had been dating a year at that point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1004217 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 12:53:29 +0000 AmandaB8 1004217@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I knew each other for 2.5 years before we started dating - we were best friends. There was very little I discovered after we started dating!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1004199 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 12:48:48 +0000 Torchwood 1004199@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's hard to remember. Somewhere around 3 years? We started dating at 19, and *I* was incredibly immature at that time. I honestly have NO idea how he stayed with me. So I was too self-absorbed to get to know him properly. But he stuck it out for some crazy reason, and we got married after 5 years and have been married now for 4. I now really feel like I know him better than I've ever known anyone. (And yet, I STILL struggle to find him birthday/Christmas gifts. He's impossible.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1004191 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 12:45:37 +0000 BabyMats 1004191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can say I "knew" him before we started dating. I had absolutely no intentions of dating him and he thought he did not have a chance so we became really good friends and we told each other everything. We spent so much time together, I fell in love with him. When we moved in together it wasn't anything different or drastic.thank God it was a smooth transition. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1004177 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 12:40:59 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1004177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I knew him within 9 months of knowing each other. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1004159 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 12:37:50 +0000 ChattyCathy 1004159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can honestly say I "knew" him after the week we met. He's so transparent. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1004149 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 12:36:10 +0000 Sunshine1810 1004149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would say that I really knew him around the 1 year mark. I always felt like I knew him well, but that was around the time we were practically living together (except I still had my place...just wasn't going there). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1004129 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 12:33:02 +0000 MapleMoose 1004129@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were friends for several years before dating, but it wasn't until about 6 months-1 year of dating that we finally relaxed around each other enough to really show who we are. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1004088 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 12:27:13 +0000 Crisark 1004088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I knew him within a couple months.<br /> We were engaged after 7 months and married right around 18months of being together.</p> <p>I've learned how sensitive he is. He's very emotional and open with his feelings and I really love that about him.<br /> I can irk him by ending an argument with 'whatever' </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1004039 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 12:15:40 +0000 swurlygurl 1004039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We dated for 2 months before dating long distance for 3 years! We got married after I graduated college (at the end of the 3 years of long distance dating), and then obviously started living together. That was quite the shock!! Even though we'd dated for soooo long, we'd hardly spent any time in each other's presence, so living together was sooo different. I didn't really KNOW him until being married for like 6 months. Good thing I still liked him, because it could have very easily gone the other way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1004006 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 12:05:39 +0000 nana87 1004006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hmm interesting! </p> <p>i think we "knew" each other very well when we moved in together, around the 2 year mark--the year before we lived ~3 blocks from each other so were basically living together in 2 apartments (and with his roommate, haha) during that year, so most the kinks were worked out. </p> <p>but then 6 months after that his father got very, very ill and we went through a really hard patch because he wasn't handling it very maturely (i.e., no one *likes* hospitals but you suck it up for family). i saw a new side to him, and i think i learned a new side about me as well, but we really developed our communication skills to get through it stronger than before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1003941 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 11:49:53 +0000 MrsBrewer 1003941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awesome thread!!</p> <p>Hmm I think I "knew" him once we got married and were living together. He's very hard to read, but he's amazing at reading everyone. But he asks too many damn questions! So like if I'm just in a crabby mood, and just want to be left alone, he just sits there and pries until he finds out why I'm mad, or upset. Sometimes I just don't want to talk about it!! hahahaha I think he means well though, he's very much a problem solver. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1003933 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 11:48:03 +0000 pui 1003933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I *knew* him at around the year and a half mark. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-know-your-so#post-1003929 Fri, 09 Aug 2013 11:46:36 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1003929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We met and and married in the span of 9 months and we were LD for 2.5 years.</p> <p>I think I *know* DH now, but there was quite an adjustment period. The two biggest personality traits I didn't realize initially was just how stubborn he is and how closed off he can be to new ideas. The one weapon I have is silence. DH loves to discuss things and likes to persuade you to his side during debates. He is irked when I refuse to engage him. :happy: </p> <p>What's something you learned later in your relationship?<br /> What can you do to irk your SO? </p>
