ManOfLove Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Hello everyone, I am at the point in my relationship where we are discussing moving in together. We have been dating for over a year I am 22 and she 24. I madly in love with my girlfriend and see feels the same about me. I want to know if it is a good idea to move in together or not. Is it to early, should we wait till marriage. How do you know when it is the right time?
mammasita Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Coming from an old lady who has been there and done "living together" many times - I don't think its a good idea unless you are engaged or married. You are young, you will live and learn - perhaps use this as a learning experience. Just my thoughts 3
man_in_the_box Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 While waiting for marriage is a personal choice between you two the other question you might be able to answer yourself. Do you want to live together? Do you feel ready to make that step? EDIT: I do think a year at that age is really, REALLY short 1
emva07 Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 if you feel 100% about it, sure. If you have your reservations, no.
Criticality Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 There is no such thing as "too soon". It always depends on the person. The big advantage with moving in together, is that you get to see what the other person is to live with. It's a test run for marriage. The big disadvantage? All the problems that inevitably creep up in the marriage will show up too. So it's really up to you. It's hard to say anything else without knowing how mature you are and how experienced. Whether you might want to wait a little while or not, I do recommend to move in together before you get married. It's a lot easier to move out again, than to get a divorce if it turns out to be a nightmare. 1
