I WAS A 60 DAY FIANCEE! | Story Time

Long before the show “90 Day Fiancée ”, I met my now husband and we got engaged just short of 60 days! Have a watch to see how it came to be…and some dating advice that I think still holds true almost 30 days later!

I loved hearing your story Marnie! Really enjoying these story time videos. My parents went on their first date in February 1976 and got married in May of the same year, exactly 3 months to the day. They're still together and happy 46 years later with 4 kids and 5 grandkids so far!

Fun story! Met my husband in law school. I was a third year. He was a second year. I graduated and moved to another state. He followed me the following year. We’ve been married for 34 years. When my 24 year old daughter asks how I knew he was the one I explained that he felt like home to me. When I was with him I felt settled, loved, and secure. I still do. I think we are both very lucky.

What a precious story. Can’t stop smiling! I got married at 20 right before starting dental school, Aug 18, 1973. We look like children!! But 49 yrs later still going strong!!

[wendybrown]

What a lovely story! When I met my husband I just knew also. I was 23 and he was 21. We were married in 3 months. Here we are 37 years later. A daughter, 2 sons( one in heaven), 5 grandchildren. We are still so happy together. I'm happy for your family Marnie!🥰❤

This is such a great story! I also love how you still get giddy talking about Michael all these years later. You definitely found the right one. Please keep doing these videos! They're very entertaining!

Loved your story. We are celebrating 40 years married in October, and on our 1st date (way back in July 1978) we went for dinner at a restaurant far too fancy for 2 young kids. There was an 'older' couple seated next to us, who said nothing to one another over their entire meal except, 'pass the pickles'. Even after all these years our conversation never lacks, however on occasion there can be silence followed by one of us saying, 'pass the pickles'. Congratulations on 25 years married, thanks for sharing.

Your love story was lovely. You are right. You just know. I have been married 53 years and still feel 17 when my husband tells me how beautiful I look when I am doing housework. God is good.

Loved hearing that story Marnie! My husband and I have been married 33 years. We got married very young. We started dating the August after graduating from high school in 1987. I was in nursing school and he was working in the oilfield. We got engaged the following February and got married Dec 16, 1988. He was 20 years old and I turned 19 on Dec 25, 1988. Like you said, when you know, you know but we sure were young! I finished school in May 1991. Our oldest, my son was born Sept 17, 1992 and my daughter was born March 23, 2000. My son has been married for five years and have a 3 year old daughter and 8 month old son. My daughter is engaged and will be getting married next April.

I love your story! It’s actually really similar to mine - I met my husband in Aug 95, got engaged Jan 96, bought a house two months later and then got married in Aug 97! We just celebrated our silver anniversary too - and we have a 24 and 21 year old! I agree, when you know, you just know ❤

[brendathompson]

I loved your story Marnie! I actually even giggled a few times. A good love story is always worth listening to. Like the older couple said on your first date It Is so nice to see young love & even sweeter to see it years later. Have a great weekend 😘

[snowbellamama]

Love your story time Marnie. And you look great! ❤ My husband was the first guy I met that I immediately felt at home with. People want sparks and drama, but that takes a lot of energy to maintain over the long haul. I think one of the major keys is being with someone who has the same values you do. That doesn’t mean you’ll agree on every single thing or be twins. But it means that you will be in the same page for the very important issues in life.

Love it! Your face and eyes lit up so brilliant while you were telling this story, thank you for sharing 😊

[joywind]

We have been married 42 years and I agree that the natural attraction is powerful. I met my husband as a child in middle school. We dated for several years in high school and four years in college before we married so we also had lots of time together before marriage. Relationships change over time but our love changes with the seasons of our life. I feel very blessed.

[cebear]

I loved hearing the "full" account of your courtship! I've been following you long enough that I knew most of the details!! The thing I like most about you is how real and practical you are (that's coming from someone that is very logical and practical). Great video - love these story times.

[magicalemmarose]

Really enjoyed this chat! Oh Marnie I watched your very first what to look for in a spouse when I was with my ex and I knew deep down he wasn’t the one. Now that I’ve found the right person, I finally realise it’s true what they say - when you know you know! It’s so obvious now!! ❤️❤️❤️

[jolesliewhitten]

You are correct—the correct person feels like you’ve known him ALL YOUR LIFE. I was 72 when I met him and we committed to each other THE NIGHT WE MET. ( We had talked on the phone and we did have a mutual friend to question.) BUT WE COMMITTED 4 hours after meeting.

[bethmann]

Oh Marnie, I absolutely love hearing this story ❤ how adorable!!!

[betsybabf]

My husband and I were engaged in 6 weeks, married in 6 months. We were together almost 25 years, until he passed away. We were young, not looking to get married, but we knew the moment we met each other was really the one. The kids and I miss him so much.

[lilycloy]

Love your story time. Can you please do more videos like this? Thank you!!

[AnExpatKnits]

This is so sweet! Thank you for sharing your story Marnie! Totally agree, when you know you know. I noticed in one of the photos you included that your husband was wearing a USAF uniform. My husband retired a few years ago after spending 35 years active duty in the USAF. Thank you both for your service. 🇺🇸
