Jilly10340 Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 So I've been dating this guy for 8 months now. Our relationship is great! We get along great, have tons in common, always have fun together, we're together all the time, etc. etc. We've been talking recently about seriously moving in together. We've already talked about marriage in the future and those kinds of plans, so we're pretty serious. We live only 5 minutes away from each other (literally) How soon is TOO soon to move in with someone. I've lived with someone before so I know how it changes a relationship. Does anyone have any advice on this situation? Is it too soon?
Art_Critic Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 I say go for it.. 8 months is not too soon to be with someone before moving in...just about right actually I would think you would welcome the change the relationship will undergo with moving in.. that would mean you were working towards the goal of spending your life together.. I'm happy for you
chasinghappiness Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 8 months is definitely ok.....My boyfriend and I moved in together after dating for about 7....and it is different. I had pretty much moved into his apartment after about 2 months or less.....we talk marriage, children, future...all of that. Because of him losing 2 jobs in a row...our relationship has been incredibly strained lately. Well, there are many other factors straining it...ok...I won't get into my problems right now, but what I'm trying to say is......When you live with someone, you realize if you do truly want to be with them....If they really ARE the person for you. I have realized that my boyfriend is NOT the person I want to spend the rest of my life with....it's a sad realization...but I'm so glad I found that out before marriage! Best of luck!
