Moving in together is a big step for any relationship. While many believe that you shouldn’t do it without a long-term commitment, others prefer to give the relationship a “test drive” with a little cohabitation before moving forward.
No matter which side of the issue you’re on, there are a few important questions to ask before moving in together. Once you’ve got the answers, from yourself and from your man, you’ll truly be ready for taking this leap in your relationship.
Are You Moving in Together Too Soon?
If your relationship has been going forward too fast, the move might be less of a joy than you think. It’s important that you really know your boyfriend before committing to living together. Have you even been on a vacation together? When you jump too fast into moving in with your man, you’ll get to know him even faster, and you might not like what you see.
Is It for Convenience?
One of the best questions to ask before moving in together is if this steps is emotionally important to you. If you’ve just doing it out of convenience, because you spend most time together anyway, and living together will help both of you save some rent and utilities money, you might be making a mistake. Unless you genuinely want to share more of your time with your man and make this commitment together, don’t rush into it.
