People Are Sharing Their Marriage Pact Stories

“We made a pact that if we were not married by 30, we’d get married. We drifted apart a bit at 29 years old, and we were both dating other people. She ended up marrying the person she was dating, and I ended up marrying the person I was dating. We both went to each other’s weddings with our respective S.O.s.”

“We’d meet as couples and go to dinner sometimes and once vacationed together for a long weekend. Our kids went to the same school for a while, too. Then we lost touch for about five years…until one day, I ran into her at a local Starbucks.

I heard someone call my name, and it was her! We hugged and caught up for a while. I then asked her how her husband was doing, and she said they split up about a year ago. She asked about my wife, and I told her we split about 10 months ago. We looked at each other, and I asked her if she’d meet me for coffee the next day, and she immediately said yes!

We dated for several years and got married in December 2021.”
