Financial Collaboration
This may be one of the most common reasons for living together before marriage. Consider this: most serious couples literally live together. They keep clothes and other personal goods at one person’s home, and they may spend more time there than on their own. In such a situation, it would make sense to quit paying two leases or mortgages, two utility and cable bills, and so much more. While there is undoubtedly a benefit of living together, you must exercise fiscal prudence. It is incredibly tempting to spend the extra money you save without even realizing it.
When You Finally Get Married, It’s Less Stressful
Living with anyone may be difficult. Everyone has the power to get on your nerves when you live in the same place 24/7, whether it’s your own parents, siblings, or children. It’s simply a reality of life. When you’re dating or in a serious love relationship, though, you have far less time to get to know someone’s behaviors. When you first start dating, you may not notice or overlook some of your partner’s irritating tendencies. You might even find it endearing. But as time passes, what you thought was fine starts to grate on your nerves.
You become closer and form a stronger bond
In any relationship, but especially in marriages, intimacy is essential. But I don’t only mean physical/sexual or emotional closeness when I mention “intimacy.” There are other types of intimacy that are equally vital, such as intellectual, spiritual, experiential, and volitional closeness. Let us now discuss volitional intimacy. This type is concerned with the obligations that two individuals make to each other. For example, if you and your partner decide to buy a house, a car, or a dog together, you are making a commitment to each other. Moving in together symbolizes that kind of connection. When a couple’s relationship is strong, they have all of these sorts of closeness in harmony.
