One of my closest friends lives with her boyfriend. But they also have another roommate, and it's a three bedroom apartment, not a two bedroom. They were in the same year as you and your boyfriend- she was a rising junior, he was starting grad school. She goes to school in another state, but she tells me that it's worked out marvelously for them- but they were together for close to two years before that arrangement came about. And, they ended up sleeping in their own beds during most weeknights.

I personally wouldn't make that choice for myself, because I want the commitment of a ring before we even think about it. And there's no way I'd be making that choice during college, as my parents would refuse to support me financially, and I frankly need their help while I'm a student. You just need to think about all that could go wrong, and consider the possibility. For me, there's too many negatives to the situation to do it. But it is your life.
