Good and bad.
good: You get to know the person inside out, the bad habit, how is it feels to be married and lives together under 1 roof. You have more time w him/her to be spent together.
bad: well, if it doesnt work out- breaking up is much harder than couples who doesnt live together. All the real baggages (one of you have to move out eventually)..not counting the emotional baggage too.

It's not good. Companionship is great, however if the person you are with is worth leaving your parents (or your own ) home to establish a home with them, you are making a major commitment to a lifestyle change. You are not just committing to changing your living arrangements you are committing to a relationship. If you are willing to do all of that -why do it sinfully?
You would do better by making the complete commitment in marriage. That way you won't be living in sin.
If you live with them for seven years you are considered married anyway (common law marriage) and once you seperate it is considered a divorce. ( you end up splitting up the assets as if you were married anyway.)
In essence- If you love them enough to live with them - Love them enough to marry them ( just do the right thing by the person you say you love. If you didn't love them why move in at all?)
If it's for convienience- It won't be convienient for long and a relationship will begin to emerge whether you desire it to or not. The longer you stay the more invested you become into that person and a relationship you did not plan on having and before you know it-- emotions, love, feelings and sex become a factor. BOOM a relationship just emerged.
Now you are back to the whole commitment issue again.
In the end - don't move in unless you have set the wedding date and put a deposit down on the reception hall (Smile).

I use to think it was OK, who needed that piece of paper any how. But if you live with someone and you get married, you already know them, but that also means you know what buttons to push and how far you can push them.
Waiting until you're married to live together means you can grow together , I believe you can be more understanding, patient and caring.
Every time I live with a woman not being married, there was no commitment there and the two I finally did marry, it didn't work out. I'd like to believe it would have been different if we had waited.

All of the research says that it is bad. In reality I have never seen a problem with it. It is good especially if you have never lived with someone of the opposite sex before.

I believe it's the only way to really get to know someone before you marry them.

Good, It allows the couple to get closer and see one another at their worst so they don't make a decision they might regret.
