I moved in with my boyfriend a few months and haven't experienced anything like that. I moved into his condo knowing that it was his name on the mortgage and that I was just lucky enough to find a place in Atlanta that's in a good location, spacious, and for a good price! Our place is a 2 bedroom/2 bath condo so we both have our own walk-in closets and our own bathrooms. This certainly alleviates a lot of the stress of giving up personal space. I don't nag him about leaving the toilet seat up or leaving whiskers in the sink. Only when we're having guests come over do I ask him to clean up his own bathroom...or if it becomes a toxic waste zone.
We have the normal couple arguments but never an all out fight. Living together takes getting use to and it takes compromise. The best thing we could've done was sit down with each other before the move in and told each other our roommate pet peeves. We knew ahead of time what the other was expecting out of the living situation and I think it's made us much happier roommates!
