Your Reasons For Having a Long or Short Engagement

Tara Sharp — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 07:00:06 PDT

We asked whether you'd want a long or short engagement, and you gave us some great responses on the site and on our Facebook page. So far long engagements have the upper hand but not by a lot! While some say it depends on the situation, many of you had reasons for why you'd go with one over the other. So here are some of your reasons (and it looks like the short-engagement voters even like short, to-the-point responses!):

Long Engagement

"Long. It allows for better planning, and easier for distant relatives to plan ahead. (I plan on sending out save the dates at least eight months in advance instead of six. Plane tickets from El Salvador and Montreal to SF are 'spensive.)" - Elizabeth
"Had several short (too short, barely-knew-the-bloke engagements) . . . I'm going strong for long this time (four years now, but it will happen before five)." - Lisa
"Long, for sure. I just got divorced on Monday from my first marriage. Getting married too fast is a MISTAKE! Make it a long engagement, and ask yourself everyday if you can handle living with his/her quirks and annoyances every day for the rest of your life. Don't think about changing them, JUST AS THEY ARE, could you bare it? If not, double your engagement time and see where you both stand after that. Because divorce is truly a b*tch - just saying." - Samantha
"I personally like a long engagement, it gives you time to spectate the situation and to make sure that this is what you want. If you rush into it quickly you are going to be faced with more stress." - Ashley
"I met my hubby at age 14, started dating at 17, engaged at 22, married at 24. Still happily married 10 years later. I prefer the long engagement (two years in our case) because it allows you to plan every detail. I had the wedding of my dreams!" - Lucy

Short Engagement

"Short . . . been through the long engagement . . . second time around can be short." - Jeanne
"Short! If you are engaged then you are obviously serious, so what's the point in waiting more than a year?" - Nicole
"None is perfect. I'd rather just go from being not married to married and skip the hullabaloo." - Robin
"Short. Why wait?" - Lacy

Becky Kirsch — Thu, 24 Feb 2011 19:49:04 PST

As Meredith starts to lose her vision on Grey's Anatomy, a few of her fellow doctors begin to open their eyes to situations that have been right in front of them all along. The Chief finally admits that his wife may have a serious problem, Lexie notices the way Jackson's been craving, and bigger issues come to the light for Cristina, Owen, Callie, and Arizona.

The episode has a few unexpected surprises (especially for April), along with more pregnancy drama and Alzheimer's talk. Ready to get into it? Just
