- It is a matter of opinion and no ones business, but the couple involved. For convenience sakes many young people (even some older individuals) will live together without getting married or live together until they do get married. It is only wrong is eyes of the couple. The downside of living together before marriage is the couple has been living like a married couple so it takes the excitement and joy out of any upcoming wedding because what is left? The couple has lived together for 1 or more years; done the same things a married couple does and by getting married they have lost the part of the excitement of not living together and waiting for the day of their wedding and then having their wedding night whether they have had a sexual relationship before or not. Then they get to live together and experience the joys and some downsides and make a future for themselves.

Is living together before marriage a good idea?
Sure, it helps you to get to know your partner better before you make a big commitment and you can see his/her flaws before assuming that he/she is the one. Living together before marriage is a great way to practice sharing responsibility and knowing what it's like to be under the same roof as your partner,(especially if he/she gets very annoying.) That way you can test the waters before you dive in! ;) Living together before marriage is a great idea because you can see the real sides of people. At home often times people release their inhibitions and do away with fasades. Living together before marriage can sorta give you a taste of what marriage is going to actually be like, because when you really think about it...you are committing your entire life to that person and you would place yourself in a whole different ball park if you stepped into it all wrong. So for those of you still debating moving in together is a good idea.

Living Together-Is it better than marriage and-or improves the chances of a stable marriage?
Well, in my point of view, marriage is the best option as long as you know what you're doing. Marriage is not a game, as where simply living together is. There are risks to both: Marriage can end up in a bad relationship due to the person not being "the one" and living together may end up in a really bad argument where someone gets hurt or worse.
