Poll of the day
Just to get some more posts on our new board!
Did you live with your DH before you were married? and for comments- if you had it to do over, would you have done it the same way?

Re: Poll of the day
Yes we actually owned our home before we even got engaged. If I had to do it all over again I would do it the exact same way

Re: Poll of the day
We did. At first I was very against it, but it made the married life transition a piece of cake. Once we were married I knew how good it could be and how bad it could be (living together). If I had to do it over again, I would do it the same way.

Re: Poll of the day
we didnt live together but spent every weekend together- it was NOT the same thing.
we didnt have a choice really, because I was caring for my grandmother up until we got married (now she has a live-in nurse)- but I wish we could have lived together first- I think it would have avoided a lot of stress that we have been going through

Re: Poll of the day
We did not. I'm glad we didn't bc now everything is so exciting and so new, I am loving being a newlywed.
A lot of people tried ti scare me saying "oh wow I would never not live with someone before I married them" but DH and I dated for a long time and spent a lot of time together. We knew that we knew eachother well enough that living together wouldnt be like this big crazy hard change, and it wasn't we love it!

Re: Poll of the day
Yes, we lived together for one year before being married.
I would NOT change it, and I would never have married him before living together. The transition was hard and we were at eachother's throats for the first 4-5 months or so. Getting married was easy-peasy because nothing changed!

Re: Poll of the day
Yes, but only for 2.5 months before our wedding. I was unemployed for 2 of those months so I was able to lay down the law a lot easier since I was home

Re: Poll of the day
We lived together for over 3 years before we got married. I never wanted to live with someone before I got married to them, but because of financial reasons it just made sense. Plus in the years that we lived with each other we moved 4 times to three different states. And in those moves it is not as though it would make sense to keep finding new roommates and our own apartments.
I wish we could have moved in together after we were married, but we got a lot of the challenges out of the way first, so I guess that is good.

Re: Poll of the day
Yes, we lived together 4 years before we married. I personally could not go into a commitment that huge unless I knew 100% what I was getting myself into

Re: Poll of the day
We lived together for about 4 years before getting married. It worked out well for us but I can see how living together for the first time after being married would be so exciting!

Re: Poll of the day
We moved in together, got engaged, bought a house, then got married... lol. But it worked for us, and if I had to do it again I'd do the same thing.

Re: Poll of the day
No we didnt. I'm glad but there was definitely a difficult transition- more for him than me. We've moved 3 x this year but I think we're finally settled in our apt now and everythings been pretty cool

Re: Poll of the day
We lived together out of state for 9 months then when we moved back to NY when moved back in with our parents. Eventually we got an apartment and lived together again before the wedding. It's an experience I would never change for the world bc I knew that I could live with him and he didn't drive me crazy.

Re: Poll of the day
No we didn't. I wouldn't change it. The transition wasn't easy but I knew he was the one and would have married him anyway. Besides, I liked feeling like there was something new and different about our relationship (even though I know it is new whether you live together or not). I guess I just liked being traditional about it.
