I live with my fiancee now. We are getting married in march 07. We already have children together. We would have gotten marries sooner but our parents wanted us to what till we older. I guess they finally gave up and decided we were not going to break up. I was 16 when I got pregnant.

Its definitely a personal decision that you have to make. Of course some people are going to think its a bad idea while others will think its a great idea. You do what YOU want.
For me, I have been living with my boyfriend for about a year and a half. I definitely have learned a lot and know that we are not ready for marriage yet.

I think it's a great idea to live together before marriage. It's easy to have a relationship with someone when you aren't with them 24-7, but things change when you seem them at their worst and not just at their best. You may find things that you can't live with, which is why we have divorce, so it's good to find out before you get married.

Yes. I think it's important to do it. It's like a trial marriage. If it doesn't work out living with them, then you know it won't when married.
