They’ve Been Together Forever
There was a couple who had been best friends forever—like, many years. They never put the boyfriend/girlfriend label on anything, but they were both in the military, lived together, and were an item long before they introduced each other as girlfriend and boyfriend.
By the time they started “dating,” they only really dated for about a year before they got married, even though they’d effectively been together for over a decade. Their families knew each other and everyone who knew them knew they were going to eventually get married.
It wasn’t weird if you knew them. During their wedding, they were brought to the dance floor to play some kind of newlywed game while the DJ—who didn’t know them—MC’d the event.
He asked how long they dated, to which they said just under a year. The DJ goes on this rant about how he can’t believe people that only know each other for a short period of time and get married.
He un-ironically asked them if they understood that they were getting MARRIED and that he seriously doubted that they’d known each other for long enough to make that kind of commitment. Yikes. Story credit: Reddit / raddlesnake
