Engagements – How Long Is Too Long?

How long is too long to be engaged? “The Real” ladies chat it up about long engagements in this juicy Girl Chat session.

I agree with Tamar and Tamera. Don't ask me if you're not really ready.

[gigglyfitzgirl]

I know one thing, my future man better not do a public proposal. I hate that whole concept.

My husband and I planned our wedding the day of our engagement. We got married 3 months after. We have now been married for 13 years.

I still love these old clips with Tamar

[TigerLily]

Yup. I was engaged for two years. My fiancé at the time got mad at me when I asked when we would set a date AND I was never excited or started planning. I ended up breaking up with him and married my husband after dating for 6 months. He proposed and a month later we were married.

When you know; you know!!

I think they forgot to mention that many people get engaged but dont have enough money for the wedding so they hold off until they have enough

"If you put a ring on it that mean you are ready for commitment, let's do this"

YEAP! Say it

*Getting married on march 28 of 2020*

I'm pretty sure a Nigerian came up with that statement. #witchcraft

It's segments like this where I think how can they get rid of Tamar. I feel like sometimes she's the only one who really gives good motivational advice while the others just tell personal experiences. Tamar does both she speaks from her past & motivates your future.

I love how Tamar keeps it real. Lol! “You don’t have to rush into it right away.” “Why come?? YOU wasn’t ready.” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

That ring has an expiry date of one year! After that it’s just a gift.

[Rooted_Locs]

If you propose to somebody, you should be ready to marry them the next damn day! People these days focus way too much on the wedding ceremony and not enough Fucus on the actual marriage. Get married in court, plan your grand ceremonies later.

I believe Lenny propose to Adrienne to shut her up

[mindofzena]

Watching these old episodes I see clearly that Jeanie and Freddie were not meant for each other..hindsight is 20/20.

I really don't think Tamar is as bad as everyone makes her seem. I don't think Tamera would be friends with her if she was that much of a diva behind the scenes. I will miss her TONS, I don't know how the show will be after her, but I still want to support the other four women.

My boyfriend and I have been together since I was 16 and he was 17. We'll make 6 years this summer! We plan on being engaged later this year, and getting married late next year. :') So happy to be in a healthy, loving relationship!

[Ashleygiroux]

I got engaged in March and our wedding is 5 months later. 12 days from today! He was ready and so was I. We have been together 15 months. We both felt the “ the one” feeling from day 1 💕💍

Adrienne's makeup is always slaying

[loaloa]

Tamar is the kind of friend who will give you the truth even if it hurts you but it will set you free....I like all her advises and life lessons she give on the show, they really have huge gap to fill after her and 100% the show won't be the same without her. btw I only learned about Tamar through this show then I started watching her reality shows 😥😥😥

I’ve been with my fiancé for a little over four years. We got engaged on our four year anniversary and we plan to get married on our 6 year anniversary. We decided on a long engagement to have time to plan and to save up (we’re both 21). Two years may seem like a long engagement to some, but we both felt that it was the right amount of time. Even though it’s still a year and eight months away, we talk about the wedding daily and are saving up. I think your engagement can be as long as you feel works for you, as long as both parties are in agreement. Plus, the engaged part of a relationship is super fun and I’m just enjoying all that goes along with it. 💕
