Moving together at 8 months?

I think that it would be fine! My husband and I moved in together before we were even dating. I don't think that you should listen to what other people think about it. What feels right to the both of you is what you should listen to.

My husband and I moved in together at 6 mos and got married at 1 yr. When I was making that decision, I made a pro and con list. Pros won. Good luck, girl

I think that as long as your willing to accept that there is a risk, moving in with someone, no matter how long you've known them, you should "give er". You still have a lot of time to get to know eachother before you are planning to move, and from what you told me, he is there with you often, so it will be almost like you are living with him untill you do actually move right ? I am just glad you have found someone that puts a smile on your face and makes you laugh and someone that will treat you the way you deserve. I love it when your happy and i wanna cry when your sad. I love you man! and i hope everything works out for you the way you want it to :) XOXO

without knowing much about you or your relationship, I would first take a look at how well the two of you got alone on a regular basis before I made any kind of "judgement." If you are a couple who argues a lot, I wouldn't recommend it, as you might still need some time to really get to know each other, but if you have one of those spontaneous connections to each other, I'd be all for it.

if i know you and most probably you are my friend..and i am living here in Philippines and in here ,living in together is not morally accepted, i would advice you to marry first but since we are in different world, i mean of different countries...i guess i would tell you to think things all over again. what i mean is are you both capable financially?, are you both ready for responsibilities?, have you plan everything ?.....if you think it can work out then i guess you can move in together but if you have still doubts about it, then dont go yet..think about it a 100 times girl.

My partner asked me to marry him after we'd only been together for 8 months so no, i don't think there's anything wrong with living together at that stage. We moved in together after we'd been a couple for almost a year & we're still together after 9 years! We're not married yet but still everything has worked out well for us. Our relationship is strong, we have a beautiful baby girl & i think living with my partner has made things easier - i know what he likes & should we get married, i already know the way he is & how hard or easy he is to live with. I reckon you should just go for it & if it doesn't work out, then at least you'll know that for next time!

Truly I think it's completely up to you. I think as long as you too are in love and want it to work then go for it. I've known people who have moved in together and even married for less time then that and it has worked. I also think it's a great idea that you live with one another before you get married because it's really the only way to really get to know a person :) Good luck :)

I don't know your situation but I'd make sure I was capable of being self sufficient should anything go wrong. Otherwise, go for it, just make sure you can work together.

I would have to say it depends on your age, your situations, your jobs and your income. If you can afford to move in together, I have no problem with bf/gf living together. It gives you a dose of reality. You will see the good and the bad. You will go threw the money issues and the personal issues. If you are in a strong realationship, it will probably be a good experience for you.

Well, i guess if you are ready for it, just give it a try for 2 weeks. If everything turns out good, then u can plan for long term. The pro and con are, when both living together, you will also see the other side of him, never clean the room, smoke inside the room, etc...and how you guys tolerate each other to deal with the situation. Another benefit of living together is, save a big portion of money that goes to landlord.

I moved in with my boyfriend after 3 years and I thought that was too soon :) But if you are serious about one another I think it is fine! I mean test drive the car before you buy it lol.

I think it depends on your age and how the relationship is. If you both know you can handle living together everyday then go for it. A friend of mine moved in with her bf at the 7month mark and they are doing great. It all really just depends on the people and how well they fit together. Living together will allow both of you to get to know each other a lot better and on a different level. Good luck.

You have been given some good advice in this post, but ultimately the decision is yours. Only you can decide what is right for you. Don't let other people make the decision for you and don't let others(your boyfriend, parents, friends, people in this post, etc...) pressure you into doing something. It seems that you may be trying to seek approval for doing or not doing this(or you already know and you just wanted to open a discussion for the sake of it - I don't know). If that is the case, think long and hard about this decision. Ultimately only you know what is or isn't the right thing for you.

you just brought back memories...me any my husband when we were dating we actually moved in together after 2 months, and i will not lie it was crazy you will find out things about him that you knew like his little habits good and bad, in the begainning me and him used to argue like there was no tommorrow but eventually we learned each others ways and well the rest is history :), but it is a good move because you rather know what he is like as far as living with him so this way if you two ever get married you wont be like most newlyweds and find out things and argue and end up getting a divorce "because you didn't know he was like that" instead when you move in together before a major step like that (if it happens)you get all that out of the way

I would say if you love each other then give it a try. It is very different when you live with someone though. There are chores and bills. You have to learn to work together. There may be things that annoy you...but you just have to try and get past them. Everyone has thier quirks...and living together can bring them out. I hope you can work things out and come to a good agreement...about the household and bills.

I see nothing wrong with living with your boyfriend, I moved in with my boyfriend after dating him for 6 months, our situation was a little different in that I had moved several states away for a couple of month prior to moving in with him and we did it cause we could not bear to be apart from each other, we have lived together for the last 6 months and both of say it is the best thing we have ever done, we are more in love with each other than ever.

how else would you know if you are compatable enough to make it my opinion would be to go for it

My wife and i have been living together as bf /gf thing for 4 years. Yes there are alot of issues regarding money and attitudes and the likes and dislikes.WE almost got separated because we have found out of our diffrences and we often argue about it. Sooner, or later we have realized that it is a matter of patience , undeerstanding and the acceptance of your partner as a whole but not the part of him/her alone. You should love the totality and the differences of your partner so that you will grow and continue to be together. Without this factoe and the love for one another, i think you wouldn't last a month or more.YOU should think about it and you should be ready with all the surprises it will bring. Goodluck!

If you are happy with it, then go for it. It's all well and good people giving opinions, but the only ones who know if it is right - that is you and your boyfriend. How long have you been together now? If it lasts for 8 months I would say yeah why not? It is completely different from dating, but if you are happy about it then good luck. Hope you and your boyfriend have a happy future together!

I think if you love each other, and want to move in for the right reasons, it is a great idea. Just remember, things will change when you get one official place together. when you are visiting each others homes, no matter how comfortable you are, you are still a visitor. Be prepared for the minor arguements...whose bed will you keep, will we keep a tv in the bedroom, why do you get the bigger closet, who is going to go grocery shopping, why did he suddenly forget how to do his own laundry... Once you get through through first couple months of adjusting, if you're still happy, then you made the right decision, but there's no way to know unless you try. And don't let anyone else make this decision for you. Times have changed and living together has become the norm, and if you're comfortable with it that's all that matters.
