When is it a good time to live with your boyfriend

Question

Me and my boyfriend been long distance for nearly a year and me and him kinda talked about living together  but we didn't finalize anything about living together yet it was mostly talking about it. When do you think it's a good time to move in with your boyfriend? And please no negative comments I know people who had bad break ups living together but I also do know someone living with their boyfriend can last forever.

Answer

I'm turning 19 this month, I've been with my boyfriend for 2 years and we live together. Out relationship is better than before :) so don't listen to the people who tell you it'll get worst. I mean it can, but if you both do cleaning and cooking everything will be fine :)

Answer

I'm 18 and I live with my boyfriend. We've been together for less than a year. Everyone told us it was a bad idea but we did it anyway. We've been living together for 5 months and it's been great! It just depends on if you guys are ready emotionally and financially.

Answer

There's no number answer here but my best advice is to wait until you CAN live on your own independently - financially and emotionally- before you do.

My hubby is in the navy and we didn't live together until after we got married but it worked out perfectly because I had time to be an independent woman before I had a dependent (I literally do all the chores and we have 3 dogs)

Answer

I moved in with my bf about 6 months ago and I was really nervous about it beforehand. It definitely takes some getting used to. But overall it's been a great experience. I definitely feel like I know him much better now. We were together for a little over a year before we lived together but we had been dating on and off and been friends for a few years before that so I knew I could trust him. I felt like I knew him well (if you have any doubt your trust in him then definitely don't live with him). Just make sure you know what you want out of the relationship. If you know you want the relationship to grow into marriage or something equally serious this is a good test run. That's how I'm looking at it. I want to marry him but I'm not sure when and at least I'll know for sure when the time comes. Also, make sure you have a back up plan in the back of your mind. Know where you would go and what you would do if something went wrong. Don't feel trapped. Just because you're living with him doesn't mean it's permanent. I would say follow your gut but always know you have an out and try not to rush into marriage and kids (unless that is what you want). Living together is like a marriage test run so take your time and get to know them while you're sharing one roof.

Answer

When both of you can afford to live on your own. Personally I don't want my bf to be paying everything. I want it to be 50/50 so I think if you can afford to live off both combined incomes then go for it!

Answer

I've been with my fiancé since I was 13, I'm now 19 and we've lived together, at my mums house for about 4 years, we plan to be moved out an settled by this time next year, it's all down to how you feel individually and as a couple :)

Answer

Me and my boyfriend just started talking about the option of me moving into his home. Since it will be with his mum and him, she told us we will have to wait a couple months until at least next year to actually talk about it seriously. We have been together for 6 months but by the time this happens it will probably be 8 or 9 months. I think now would be the perfect time for you and it will make your long distance 100% easier.

Answer

I've been with my boy for 2 years and as soon as I turn 18 (2 weeks after exactly) I'm leaving home with him my friend and her boy and we are going to rent. :)

Answer

Me and my boyfriend have been together for a year now, we lived in Alabama then he moved across the country for a sports scholarship. I moved with him. I'm nineteen and yes we've had plenty of fights and stress over jobs, bills, ect but that's my best friend. If you think that it could work I say go for it. You only live once so why not
