[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Geez people on this board suck.  I mean, who doesn't live with their boyfriend before marriage these days? Must be old and prudish people on this board. OP, just hang in there and try to focus on your relationship. You might take this time to consider whether you really want to marry this guy yourself. Best of luck![/quote]

People that are religious don't live together pre-marriage. [/quote]

And people with common fucking sense.  My argument for not living together would have nothing to do with morals, religion, or living in sin. [/quote]

Another non-religious person who would never do it, either.[/quote]

The saying "why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free" comes to mind. [/quote]

That's dumb and sexist.[/quote]

I am the PP who quoted Meg Jay. I think that saying is arguably sexist, but it's not dumb.

In any case, too often I see the cohabitation/anti-cohabitation debate devolve into arguments about whether a man will still value a woman once she starts providing regular and reliable access to sex. It always quickly turns into feminists vs. anti-feminists. The debate shouldn't be about that. It should be about whether cohabitation creates the right environment for optimal decision making, when it comes to a massive decision that will likely impact the course of their lives.[/quote]
