everybody agree that there is some level of sacrifice in marriage..... do you believe in Live-in relationships?

I don't really understand what they are sacrificing but I know for sure that you have to take time before you get married. Not only as a human being and relationship. You can't get tot know someone if you won't see him/her in the orning and eat with him/her in the evening, and stuff like that. Even sharing a toilette can become an obstacle. I'm in favour of live-in relations cause they will save people from divorces. Do you know how much money you need to get divorced?

I've read studies that give statistics about people in live-in relationships not being willing to make the long-term commitment. I don't know how accurate their statistics are. My husband and I lived together before we started our marriage that has lasted 30 years now.

I DEFINITELY BELIEVE IN MARRIAGE..OF COURSE THERE IS SACRIFICE IN IT..BUT THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT!!PEOPLE ARE TOO LAZY OR NOT PATIENT ENOUGH THESE DAYS.NO ONE SEEMS TO WANT TO PUT EFFORT INTO ANYTHING ANYMORE.LIFE ITSELF IS HARD..LIVE WITH IT.THE MAIN QUESTION IS--DO YOU LOVE THAT PERSON ENOUGH TO MARRY THEM..IF NOT ,YOU DON'T NEED TO BE WITH THEM.THINK ABOUT IT--ANYTHING IN THIS LIFE WORTH HAVING IS NOT EASY..

yes i do believe in live in realtionships. sometimes i think if you are in a relationship and then you move in with someone...sometimes it doesnt work out because your not use to livin with that person, and you see that part of your partner and then it doesnt work out. but my husband and ilived together before we got married...and things worked out great for us!

I don't really see any problems with them. If anything, they are a dress rehearsal for marriage that will help couples address any potential problems ahead of time.
