These days many people live together before marriage, some decide never to get married at all but stay together for life. What is your view? Do you think couples should marry?
more_vert
It is not morally correct for couples to be cohabiting before tying the knot. It raises a lot of questionable issues. Like the virginity and purity of the couples. Marriage is holy matrimony that must be embarked on by two people that are pure. If they start living together before marriage it show there is breach in the commandment God gave about marriage.

They should be meeting for a date or an outing together and then going back to the different places where they live. They should also keep in touch in terms of communication and learning more about each other.

When the relationship has grown and they know each other completely, they trust each other and are ready to take their relationship to another level, then they should consider moving in together. Living together will reveal other hidden characteristics that they had not learned about each other and they appreciate themselves more. They also learn to share duties and responsibilities while living together.

Couples should not live together unless they are married. To me I don't support that and am a Christian, if you truly love someone you can't find it hard to make your relationship official. I have heard alot of men who don't want to marry because the don't want to be tied to one woman they only want to enjoy the variety of women available.

Research indicates that living together before marriage may actually increase your risk for divorce in the future.  Probably one of the most popular reasons for moving in together before getting married is distinctively financial. Simply put, you can save money by joining households.

In Asian countries, the traditional elders still keep their beliefs that marriage first before staying together as husband and wife. It is a matter of culture thing to consider this idea.

It is not right for people who are not married to live together. The right thing to do is to get married legally before leaving with each other. 

It is not even right to have sex before marriage. It is very wrong.

Now a day's living relationship is the most common culture adopted by the youth, I won't say it's good or bad, but I would not prefer living with someone before marriage. This concept of living together before marriage is just beyond my understanding, and I am not comfortable with it.

It is not moral in some countries , while it is normal for other countries.

But in our religion it is not moral and forbidden , marriage should be in the church before living together.

Living together before marriage is not ideal. Temptations will come and before you know it the two lovers start sleeping together. At that point, fornication has started. What then happens if the guy dumps the girl after satisfying himself?

I have been taught that it is wrong for people who are not yet married to leave together and it is seen as immorality in the society so we should marry before staying together in order to have respect in the society.

This is a personal decision and ultimately depends on the individual circumstances and values of the couple. Some people may believe that living together before marriage allows them to get to know each other better and ensure compatibility, while others may feel that it goes against their religious or personal beliefs. It is important for couples to openly communicate and consider their own values and goals before making a decision about living together.

There are both advantages and disadvantages to living together before marriage. Some potential advantages include:

It can be a way for couples to get to know each other better and to see how they function as a unit before committing to marriage.

It can be a more financially practical arrangement, as it can allow couples to split living expenses.

It can provide couples with the opportunity to test their compatibility and to see if they are compatible in terms of their living habits and daily routines.

Some potential disadvantages of living together before marriage include:

It can decrease the sense of commitment in the relationship and make it easier for one or both partners to walk away if things are not working out.

It can create confusion about the level of commitment in the relationship and lead to misunderstandings about the future of the relationship.

It can be difficult to reverse the decision to live together if the relationship does not work out, as it can be emotionally and financially disruptive to end a cohabitation arrangement.

My view is that marriage is a personal decision that should be based on the individual circumstances and desires of each couple. Ultimately, it is up to each couple to decide whether they want to live together before marriage or not. Ultimately, I believe that couples should marry if it is something they both feel is right for them, regardless of whether they have lived together before marriage or not.

I believe that it is a good idea to live together before marriage if you are happy together. If you don't want to get married, then it is not a good idea for you.

Living together before marriage can have both advantages and disadvantages, and its suitability depends on individual circumstances and personal values. Here are some points to consider:

Advantages:

1. Compatibility: Living together allows a couple to better understand each other's habits, lifestyles, and routines, which can help identify potential compatibility issues.

2. Financial Planning: Sharing living expenses can be more cost-effective than maintaining separate households.

3. Emotional Preparation: It can provide insight into the challenges and responsibilities of a long-term commitment, helping to emotionally prepare for marriage.

Disadvantages:

1. Social and Cultural Beliefs: Some cultures and belief systems may frown upon cohabitation before marriage.

2. Legal Issues: In some jurisdictions, legal rights and responsibilities may differ for married and unmarried couples.

3. Uncertainty: Living together without a formal commitment may lead to uncertainty about the future of the relationship.

Ultimately, the decision to live together before marriage is a personal one and should be based on open communication, shared values, and mutual agreement between partners. It's important to consider the potential consequences and discuss your expectations and plans for the future together.
