As Loughlin told Closer Weekly in 2018 about Burns, "He was a great human being, but I just felt he wasn't the one for me. I was probably too young and didn't know enough about what I needed, but I couldn't say one bad thing about him. He was a really nice person."
Meanwhile, TVoverMind states Loughlin and Giannulli actually met in 1995, with The Hollywood Reporter claiming the pair crossed paths at a restaurant in Los Angeles. They waited until Loughlin divorced her first husband to officially start a relationship.
Rewinding a bit further, it's worth noting the "Full House" star dated a few other men prior to getting together with Burns, including Christopher Atkins and Mark Arnold (via Whosdatedwho). Both men were also actors, according to College Candy. The outlet reports Loughlin attended the 1981 Golden Globes with Atkins, but they split in 1982.
Another person the former Hallmark movie star went out with pre-marriage was her co-star, John Stamos, who as fans know, played her love interest on TV (via USA Today).
