Is Co-habiting Before Marriage Okay? by oluwasma(op): 12:41pm On Apr 21, 2017
Living together with your boyfriend/girlfriend won’t guarantee a great marriage. Some live together for years and never get married. Some try to save money by paying for one house rent so they live together. Co-habiting before marriage has many disadvantages than advantages. Most dont usually lead to marriage.

Reasons why co-habiting may not lead to marriage

The guy knows everything about you: there is nothing special about you again. He know your schedule, your likes, habit, movement.

He expects you to do house chores: every man sees house work as ladies work. He can assist but it’s still your work. If you are living together, he expects you to take care of the house.

He expects you to cook: guys don’t usually like to cook and since you live together, you will do the cooking. The thing is you are practically doing everything for him for free. Why should he bother about planning wedding which will cost him more.

He will have free sex: he hasn’t met your family yet and you are living with him already. He sure will be getting free sex because you both will want to test your sexual compatibility.

It is said that absence makes the heart grow fonder. When he doesn’t see you too often, he will miss you more and loneliness will push him to do the needful fast. So why rush to live with him when you have more than half of your earth years to live together. That brings me to ask….

Do you think co-habiting before marriage is okay?

Capital NO. If he so wants you around he should get married to you asap. Don't wife any man without a ring

I am not for or against living together, but I am fir young adults knowing that, far from safeguarding against unhappibess, moving in with someone can increase your chances of making a mistake or of spending too much time on a mistake.

cool


I much prefer this than getting married tho..less hussle...if it wont work, it will save ur ass from getting ur own attorney, process all kind of shii, attending hearing for ur divorce & what not...

And if u have kids, automatic the mother will have the child custody...less stress for the both parties...
