is living together witout marriage right according to u?

Personally I dont see the problem, if my man cant respect me before we are married then im not marrying him, we have lived together almost 7 years now and we are very happy and have two gorgeous little girls I know many people dont think its right but that makes it their problem NOT mine therefore I dont concern myself with how their opinions upset them over how I live my life basically its none of their business! I would expect my man to treat me with respect and value who I am wether we are married or not if he cant while we are not married why would marriage vows make him change? I think as long as you are happy and treat each other right then marriage or no marriage it doesnt matter

hey there dude..thats my cats name too lol.anywho..first off where and how do you see if getting married would stop anyone of them taking granted of each other hun,,its realy the same for both kinds of relationships..and i see nothing wrong with living together without being married..i treat him as if we already are..heck the only difference betwen the 2 is a piece of paper..i have been living with my b/f for 5 mths now..and though we are engaged..we love..hate..fight..make up..laugh..and raise our son like we are..and i dont value him any less becasue of it..have a good one and great post!

That's not true. My partner and I have been together for six years. We love and respect each other and are grateful to each other for everything we do for each other. A ring and a piece of paper don't change how much I love him or how much I value him.

Nice point raised there. But i think you got it all reversed my friend. Its generally after marriage that the couple tends to take each other for granted. I don't say that "live-in" relations are unethical or right. Its just a matter of opinion of an individual, or a society. It is acceptable in a society where people have a broad mind towards modernization. In a more conservative society like is, this kind of relationship is bound to raise questions. Anyways i think i made my point. The bottom line is no matter what someone says it all depends on the two persons who have decided to live together.

now a days i'd rather live without marriage than marrying and got divorced just because of differences,actually now i don't believe that every relationship last long,and i know someone that they didn't get married but happy with each other.nice day

I think that co-habitation is purely unethical. Its always pinpointed that its far better to escape a divorce; divorce are merely legal, yet the emotional trauma when a couple break its the same, infact in cohabitation its very often more common, as it lacks the security that a matrimony offers.

i dont see how it would make a difference in whether they take each other for granted or not but i dont think that people should live together before marrige

Depends on the commitment or status of the couple. But for my own opinion i would consider first marriage before living with a partner. Respect for the person and the family is more important and so asking for marriage is one way of respecting the partner as a person and a lover.
