Then he brought of the subject of living together. I never really thought about that before, and i really dont know what to think. I dont know any one who lived together before they were married.
Whats every one option on lving together while engaged, or about to be engaged?

I'm about to do it in August. Really, these days, the way marriages often end, I think it's a great test of compatibility. Just so long as it's done with something more in mind -- for example, you have already decided that when you're both done with school you'll get married.
I think a big reason that marriages end so often these days is that women are so much more self-sufficient. They have more options. If they want to leave a marriage, they're not essentially on the street because of it.
Consequently, it takes a lot more to make it work these days.
