Nowadays more and more unmarried couples choose to have cohabitation. I really think,cohabitation can check out whether boyfriend and girlfriend are suited to become husband and wife or not. In fact,cohabitation and married life is basically the same,doesn't have much difference. It can be checked out whether you two are suitable in character and mindset or not during this period,and it can clear the way for your happy marriage. So I suggest those couples who want love and wanna go through a common life with your lover,don't hesitate to have cohabitation for a period of time. How do you think about this?

I think its the same as being married just that one is finalized with a marriage liscence. Now days people get divorced in less than 5yrs of marriage and over the simplest things. Relationships and families are way different than the way things used to be so I don't see any harm.

I feel that it is a partical thing to do now days. Many think that it is immoral or against religous belifes but, I feel that if you don't know what you are getting into it is going to make a longer harder road.

I think people choose to live together in order to see how people behave in living situations. Is your partner a slob or a neat freak? Are they going to drive you nuts? It's good to know these things before you say, "I do." Also, you can figure out, as they say, "What happens when people stop being polite and start getting real." I think this is a good solution.

Families have changed in the last several decades. Instead of getting married, many people are living together or cohabiting. Some of these cohabiting couples eventually get married, many of them break up. It is a good way to test relationship

I think cohabiting is the way too do it. I was with someone for awhile then we decided to move in with him...I could NOT stand it. He was a pig! Never picked up after himself, dirty, dirty, dirty, I felt like a maid I hated it! Needless to say things didn't work out. Now what if I would have waited till we gt married? Then I would have had to pay for a divorice. Plus I don't think you truely know someone unless you live with thm first. But the funny thing is even though cohabiting is happening all the time now, there are more divorices than ever before. hehe Don't make sense does it.
