I understand the people who are saying "after we are married" but I have to put in my two cents. I say date no less than a year or so, then try moving in together. I am SO glad I did because the guy who I would have married if I hadn't lived with him turned out to be a tyrant and very abusive when I did move in. I saved myself lots of heartache and headaches by not waiting till we were married to find that out!!!

In my case I wait a yr to move with my significant other, because we leave in diferent states, but is up to you two, but I think 6 months to a yr is ok, just make sure both have talk evrything out on the table before moving tougueter, you dont want to have surprises down the road.

This is my answer personally. I dont think that this responce will be very popular but I believe that any time is too soon. A couple living together also are having sex together...its just a fact. Having sex before marriage complicates things and invites issues into the relationship. Sure, its gratifing...temporarily. Sex is so powerful that it should only be handled in the proper love and care of a commited relationship...and you can't get more commited than marriage. Hope it helps...

I think you should wait for at 1year or better yet until you are marry. I think some people move in with there significant to see if they is the one they can spend the rest of their life with.

At least wait two years if you just met this person. Don't wait till marriage because what if after all that planning and waiting ends up in a bad marriage. There's more to go through if you want to seperate, as opposed to getting to know this person's lifestyle prior to being engaged.

it depends on how you both feel about each other and moving in with each other. I met my husband on the internet. we met in person about 3 weeks after talking on the net. then i moved in with him 2 weeks later, we were engaged 4 months after that and married 6 months after that!. before i met him i thought i would never move that quickly with anyone, but it all just felt right and fell into place. I don't regret moving that fast and neither does he.
If it is right and supposed to happen, it will when the time is right

As soon as we said "I Do"...But if you're asking how long it takes to get to know a person well enough to commit long term...my mother always said at least 4 seasons...aka one year. I think you can learn a lot about a person in that time. Enough to decide if you want to stay together.

I would wait at least a year, minimum.
I have heard so many horror stories of people moving in together only to find out they really didn't know each other because they didn't wait long enough to find out who the other person really is.

depends where you guys are at in the relationship - some will move in after 3 months - some after 3 years - it depends on your comfort zone.

after a 5 year relationship, wherein you have had several nights, weeks and months over, and the second you go back home you miss each other already.
