1 year for us, but it really comes down to your relationship. I don't recommend benchmarking yours against others in terms of time lines. Just do what feels right for the two of you.
I was 27 and she was 25
6 months. And honestly I could have waited. His lease was up and we were already spending the nights together, but I liked my space. Hey ho, that was 8 years ago. Ended up married a year later

We moved in around the 2 year mark & got engaged at the 3 year mark. It’s more important to make sure you experience the natural ups/downs that happen in relationships, and make sure you’re on the same page with what you want long term. Eg what does marriage mean to you, how many kids if any, how much traveling, what kind of lifestyle, where you want to live
1.5 years. But decided after 6 months of dating (had to wait for our leases to end).
We basically spent all of our free time together and wanted more time together during the week.
3 months and we married exactly 1 year from our first date, though I was 25 and he was 31 when we married. We were together for 17 years before he died from brain cancer.
6 months here. We were 31 or 32 at the time.
