Would you move in with someone before you marry them or get engaged to them?

[Symphonyâ„¢]

Would you move in with them?

[zaddd3]

Yes. I think it is important to live with someone before you marry them.

[masketta]

yes, gotta test the waters first.

[Soleil]

Yes. I think it is important to live with someone before you marry them.

[Myugyu]

 

Yes. I think it is important to live with someone before you marry them.

 

[fufu]

Yep. I wouldn't even get engaged to someone I hadn't lived with.

[Skibop!!]

nope, I'm not playing house

[Ccynd]

No.

[SoshiStar]

no.

[Starlight]

Yes. I think it is important to live with someone before you marry them.

[DragonFury]

Yes, think of all the money you'd save by splitting the utilities and rent.

[♥SNS-Shinomiya♥]

hell no, it would spoil the relationship and the marriage for me

[mytala]

I'm a bit old-fashioned, so no.

[Almondandlime]

I'm a bit old-fashioned, so no.

Why not?

[Sudeki]

Omg yes. Don't even get engaged before moving with someone. You need to see how they live, if you're compatible, if you can stand each other for extended periods of time.

 

Marriage is a legal contract, you're essentially giving half of everything you own to that other person, so you better be damn sure it's going to work out. It's a huge step and in my opinion, should be the last step in a relationship (except if you want kids). 

[I Was Pon This Wei]

Yes absolutely. You never know just how much you get along with someone until you live with them. Living with someone can either strengthen a relationship or destroy it and marriage is a serious legal commitment and rather than going through all the trouble of divorce after finding out about your actual loved one after living with them, just test it out in the beginning and see if you can handle living with them.

[Sully]

Nope. The only men I will live with will be a husband, sibling, or dad. I see absolutely no reason I need to move in with my boyfriend if we're not even at least engaged with a date to be married setup. Not dealing with that unless it's about to be permanent. Like someone said above, I'm not playing house with you.

Umnmm all that stuff you can find out about the person without needing to live with them though. If you actually spend time at each others places and have been together for longer than a cup of coffee you can see how they live. And actually spending time together talking and hanging out (non-sex time) will show if you can stand being around each other for a long amount of time. If you can waste hours just talking to each other, I think you pretty much know you can stand being around them for a long amount of time.

[sweetjohoney]

Isn't that the point of marraige?  Moving in after getting married and then realizing what the 'better or for worst' really means?

[Lynnie]

yes, gotta test the waters first.

[mgl]

Having done the whole moving in before marriage thing before, I feel it's overrated and not a proper indicative a marriage might work. 

In some cases it might even kill the whole excitement of getting married and strain the relationship.

 

Nowadays I would just go with the flow and do whatever it feels best for the situation and the person I'm with.

[MELIBE]

No.

[shaishaix]

I need someone to help me pay my bills

[Heidi]

No, I see no point in moving in with someone I'm not planning to spend the rest of my life with.

But I have no right to judge other people's choices.   

[Soah]

Yes. I think it is important to live with someone before you marry them.

 

This.

[sailor v]

yes because i need to how they act at in their home environments, and to see if i can actually bear living with them before getting married
