people should live together before considering marriage just to give everything a "practice run?"

it really depends on the people and their beliefs... I lived with my ex... and I am oh so glad I did because I couldn't spend the rest of my life with him... I would go crazy!!!!!!!

i definatly agree from experience that you should try it out but it does depend on what you believe in.

I believe that it is really the only way that you can get to know someones habits(good or bad)...therefore it's extremely important if you are considering marriage.

I would say you should, best to find out if you can stand the person before you marry them.

sorry people..mine differs.... in my experiences...to move in with a woman..unless she is a fiance and you both know that you will be married...then sharing a place together beforehand can be very detrimental to the relationship..... TAKE IT FROM MEEEEE

Then what would you call it Winx? Some people live together with the agreement that they are to never marry. That's fine for them. I don't agree with a practice run especially if children are involved. If you truly care for someone, the habits shouldn't matter. This is my opinion for me.

Pagans Called it Handfasting! I think it's a good idea to live together for one year as husband and wife. then decide if you really want to do it.

The only problem with this theory is research has shown people who live together before they get married have a MUCH higher divorce rate than folks who don't. So much for "practice makes perfect"!
