My girlfriend and I have been living together for the past year and it has been great. Neither of us had pressure from our families to get married before co-habitating, so it was a relaxed atmosphere to get to know each other. We get to know each other's quirks and embarassing habits. Neither family has outraged at our living together, so that helps a lot, and living together before marrying her has been great! Too many people rush into marriage because of sex, living together, or family pressure. Just live together, see how it goes, and see how it goes, and then see how it goes some more, then make a decision.. Don't ever buy into something without doing your research first. Good luck

i think there's something wrong with the question, why do you have to choose from this two options? if you really love the guy and given that he too really loves you then, there's no more question to be asked especially if you know him very much..... Take it this way darling...if you are not yet sure of your feelings toward him and if you don't really know his innner-self yet then,there's no way living in just to know him better (that is,if you are a conservative-type girl, but some of the girls nowadays, prefer living in before marriage).. There are lots of ways to know him better....and always remember that "Love is patient", if it is not, then maybe it is just an infatuation or admiration, or LUST...Also, you will know it from the start if you are really compatible with each other... from now, you must already know his personality (unless, he's a great pretender, ayt?)

i have always prefered to live with someone first, although for some people that is not an option becuase of their religious beliefs. Ihave lived with 5 guys (married one of them) and not one has worked out for one reason or another (not because of me ;). Just imagine if I had married all 5 of them!! I would be not even 40 and divorced 5 times?? no thanks!!

I'd rather live with a guy first before marrying him. I think living with someone can change your relationship and get to know them more deeply... and I'd much rather experience that first than commit to marriage right off the bat.

Most definitely live together first. You never really know a person until you live with them for a while. Sometimes you would be surprised what you find out. Lets just say glad i didnt marry him!!!!!! lol.

Living with him first. I lived with my husband for two years before we got married. If you live with them frst you can see if you can truly "live with him" for the rest of your life.

Live in. It's the only way to find out about quirks that could drive you crazy. It's not shameful the way it used to be either.

Live in. Get to know each other completely first. No surprises that way.
