How Many Days Have We Been Together? Tracking Relationship Milestones
To find how many days you've been together, count from the day you started dating to today. Most couples count the first day as Day 1, so if you got together on March 1, March 1 is Day 1 and March 2 is Day 2. From there, the milestones people celebrate are the round numbers — 100 days, 500 days, 1,000 days — plus every yearly anniversary.

Enter the day you got together and it shows how many days it's been, your upcoming milestones, and the date each one lands on.
Milestones worth knowing
- 100 days — about three months and a week in. In Korea, Japan, and Taiwan, the 100th day is a well-known celebration; in the US it's a fun excuse for a date.
- Monthiversaries — the same date every month, mostly celebrated in the first year.
- 365 days / one year — your first anniversary.
- 500 days — about a year and four months. Easy to miss because nobody counts it — which makes remembering it a nice surprise.
- 1,000 days — about two years and nine months. A big one that most people only realize after it's passed.
- Every year after that.
Why anniversaries get missed
It's rarely that someone doesn't care. It's that the date lives in one person's head. One of you is "the one who remembers," the other relies on them, and then one busy week the reminder never comes.
The fix isn't a better memory. It's putting the date somewhere both of you see it, with a heads-up a few days before — enough time to book a table or order a gift.
Let the counting happen on its own
In Couple Calendar, you set the day you got together once. After that:
- Your days together show on the home screen, and on a home screen widget if you add one.
- 100 days, 1,000 days, and every anniversary are calculated automatically and appear on your shared calendar.
- You both get a reminder before each one — so it's not on one person to remember.
- Birthdays work the same way, including lunar-calendar birthdays if your family celebrates those.
Because the calendar is shared, your partner sees the same milestones you do. No more "wait, is it this Friday?"
Ideas for the in-between milestones
Not every milestone needs a big dinner. For the ones people don't usually count — 200 days, 500 days, 777 days — something small lands better:
- Recreate your first date, same place or same food.
- Write a short note about one moment from the past year.
- Make a photo page of each month together.
- Plan the next trip and put it on the calendar so there's something to count down to.
