what is the reason that boyfriend wants to me to move in together with him? we've only been dating for a year now. could anybody tell me that moving together means, what? i reckon it is indeed a big step. thanks.
Before you make a decision, think about if its really what you want. Only move in if you are fully committed to the relationship. If its what both of you want, then go for it and it could be fun. [ lovealways1221's advice column | Ask lovealways1221 A Question ]

Living together with a spouse isn't something you can say yes to in a matter of a few minutes.
When two people live together they share living expenses, If rent would to be 800 a month you would be paying the half of 400 including half of other utilities. Living with someone can be a real deal breaker if you are committed to doing so but the whole idea doesn't come without any baggage either.
They say if you can live with your spouse for 6 months, Then you can live with them forever. Now whether this may actually be true or not.....I'm still figuring that part out.
I have lived with my partner for a few years now and I'll explain a few things I've learned...
Assuming you live at home with your parents, Living out in the real world requires a great deal of responsibility. It took me a few months to learn how to handle finances and learn to be around my other half a lot more than I was but I eventually got the hang of it.
Your boyfriend wanting you to move in is a sign that he wants to take the next step into the relationship but again don't do it unless you are ready. I'm not saying it won't work out but I'm saying definitely have a back up plan if it don't. [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]
