The only reason I can cohabit with a lady is

I


Don't


Have


Any


Reason

Cohabiting better marriage is wrong biblically but then we need to do it for some reason even though you can't totally know someone

Whether it’s good or bad will depend on individual situation.

Disadvantages
It’s frowned upon in some society, culture and religion

When you live with someone, leaving them becomes difficult even if it’s in your best interest. Cohabitation can be a trap.

Advantages
Compatibility check - There are a lot of things you can’t know about someone until you live with them. Spending the weekend isn’t the same.

Ease on finance - When both individuals contribute, the cost of living is reduced for both, unlike if they live alone.

Convenience - Some people can’t afford to live alone so they end up sharing living space with strangers. Having roommates can be inconveniencing, it can be easier to be roommates with your partner.

Trap - it can be an advantage if you plan to trap someone, a disadvantage if you don’t want to be trapped.

alright nice contribution. i personally feel like theres a chance that living together before marriage can easily make the marriage not to last because already youre seeing some certain traits you wont like and will subconciouslly carry that into the marriage when quarrels start

She can come spend holidays or weekend, highest she can stay is one week.

I don't want to cohabitate when we aren't married yet. Students are very fond of cohabitation in school.
