so frnds tell me do you think so that live in relationship is good or bad.this is the such type relation in which a girl and a boy live together as like a married couple but the difference is that they don't married.they live together only to know well each other and test each other so later they decide can they live with each other forever.i think that this not a good measurement to measure how u love your partner,in my oponion this is not good also for the next generation.your culture also not allowed such type of things,so what do u think?

this is definitely not a good measurement to measure how much you love your partner.. living together in a relationship can only be some kind of preparation before marriage... so you can understand your partner lifestyle... what's the problem with getting married if you want to live together? i don't understand some couples at time... is it really that difficult to set up a wedding ceremony? i know it's costly.. but it's something that will only happen once in a lifetime.. and we,chinese will do it grandly... i also think it's not good for the next generation.. how can they accept the fact that their parents are not married? what's a marriage? =)

Hey there nikhilmittal how are you today? Im doing good. As far as being happy with my husband I certainly am. And we lived together for 6 years before we got married. Yes we had our ups and downs but in the end we made it through and deceided to tie the knot. I think its better to know a person first then get married. You see thats why there are so many divorces. People are way to fast to jump into marriage. This is not good. In my religion divorce is a sin.

Ive been with my guy for almost 6 years now. We have lived together the whole time have two wonderfull children but arnt married. I dont feel you have to marry to live with someone. Whatever makes you happy. I cant afford a wedding and I dont need a piece of paper stating I love him. I know I do, he knows I do and thats all that matters!!

It's frowned upon in my culture, however I didn't let that deter us from living together before we got married. I got to know his habits, what he was like domestically and vice versa. Our relationship grew stronger and even though all couples have their ups and downs, we are very much happily married :)

Two people living together as husband and wife for many years without having any commitment but begetting children is just like destroying the fabric of society. By such adjustment between two people for their own benefits, will completely destroy the moral of the future generation.

I think it is safer to live with than marry because if you find that you can't stand the person after a period of time you can leave without having to go through any legal channels. You get to find out about a person before you are stuck in an unhappy situation.

It is fine. I mean when two persons are happy living with each other then let them do so in whatever manner they do so untill they really get in your way. I can't understand why I have heard this only from Indian that ths is not good. I have friends in Nepal, Pakistan and Russia but they never say somthing like that.

I think its the way the marriage system works. Live in relationship sure is easier to get out of, compared to a divorce. They don't live together to get to know each other. I can't imagine anyone want to move in with a complete stranger. I am likely to believe that they do love each other and want to have a commitment so they move in together. What is good for the next generation? A loving lived in relationship or a hellish marriage? I'd chose the loving lived in relationship. There's no difference in reality. The only difference is a signed piece of paper which only is used to show proof to the government or whatever organisation.
