Answer to Question 1
The short, romantic engagement lasts from two to six months. It usually fails to give the couple much insight into one another's personalities because much of the time is taken up by preparation for the wedding. The long, separated engagement tends to defeat the purpose of engagement and raises questions of exclusivity in the relationship. The separation is usually unsatisfactory for both. The long but inconclusive engagement is an engagement that is put off for economic reasons, deference to parental demands, or indecisiveness. This is usually a sign that all is not well between them.
