No, we met on a Fb singles group, interacted in the comments with everyone else for a while. He asked me on a Skype coffee date, then we talked almost every day, about who we are, what we wanted out of life, our values, dreams, hopes, good and bad secrets. Everything we could think of.
We talked through much and kept no secrets, so we ran out of reasons not to get married.
He was gonna come to me, but it would take 12 weeks to get a marriage license in Sweden to a foreigner, so I suggested coming to America.
Our timeline started on a Friday, 2 weeks later on a Thursday, we had our 2nd official date.
The next week Wednesday (6 days) we had our official 3rd date, at which he asked me to be his girlfriend.
6 days later, on a Tuesday, he called me his fiance, as we both knew were it was going.
6 weeks later, on a Tuesday, I landed in America. He picked me up to drive me to his parents place. Halfway there, he pulled over to get gas in the rain, and then pulled out a ring! (Like in the Office)
We slept in separate places.
The next morning we got the marriage license, got back to his parents house, got ready, and his dad officiated our wedding ceremony. And we also had out first kiss after we got married, because waiting less than 24 hours from meeting in person seemed doable 😎
All in all, it only took 68 days, but when you've verified and know something is a good idea, why wait?! It's like with Bitcoin. Once you get it, why wait to put all your savings into it?!
Looking at the timeline, we see why others thought it was fast, but for us, with how intense and real we were, we simply ran out of reasons not to get married 😎 best decision we could have made! We both love being married to each other, cause we're both awesome and fit each other really well 🥰
So, to answer your question, No, we didn't really know each other before. 🤣😅
