Ask a Question - ♥Are You Waiting Until the BIG Day or Are You Living in Sin and Loving it? - FABULOUSMRSKLEIN's Pink Wedding by Color Blog

Me and my H2B are not living together at the moment. Before we were engaged we had planned on moving in together and I definitely caught some heat from my family members especially my mother and it made me think a little bit. A part of me would love to come home to him every day and have him next to me every night but we also thought about how much we're saving by still living with our parents and taking care of some bills before we decide to buy a home together.

My H2B and I do not live together. We actually live 2 hours apart from each other right now. It's not an easy situation but I know it'll make us appreciate being together more once we are married. And I think that's the way God intended marriage to be.

I guess you could say we're living in sin, but not sinning :)

Jared and I moved in together after 7 months. A lot of my family thought it was too soon, while his family could care less. But like you stated, it worked out for us financially. Soo.......we have been living together for a little over two years now. We just bought our first house and are eagerly waiting to close so that we can move in!

Now, just because we are living together doesn't mean we're sinning...........Jared and I are waiting for marriage for the ultimate rendevous!!! This was something that we decided to do when we first got together, and we have stuck to it! It's hard girls, but in the end it will be the most special day of my life!

This is long, sorry! But one more thing.........I think it's important for two people to live together before they're married, because then you really see the obstacles that can arise and see if you can get through them all together. We have dealt with emotional issues, financial issues, other issues, financial issues (wait, I said that one already!) and we have come through them all! So I say live in sin ladies, and love every minute of it!

I moved half way across the country to be with my fiance 9 months after we started dating. I kind of wanted to get my own place since we hadn't been dating long but the cost of living is so high here and I didn't have a job at first, so we took the plunge and it obviously went well. I know my parents weren't very thrilled though. jameson told me when he asked my dad for permission to marry me, my dad said he had been planing to come down here with a shot gun if he didn't marry me soon!

I come from a very large Irish Catholic family, so living together before marriage is a huge NO NO, so we aren't living together. That's just the way things are done in my family. He already has a nice home, so it's nice not to have to go house hunting after the wedding and all that fun stuff. All we have to do is move all my crap in and we are all set :)

My fiance' and I are not living together yet. We are waiting until his lease is up early next year so we can start fresh in a new & way bigger place. Right now he has a one bedroom studio apartment & there is no way my stuff would fit in there right now lol
It's hard waiting, but it will make move in day that much more special for us.

My H2B and I have been living together on and off for the last year and a half (with school and leases and all that junk, we've both moved several times). We are living separately this summer, but then as of September we will move in together for the final time... no more moving in and out! haha!
As for the living in sin part... we WERE living in sin, but we've decided to stop. We will live together but not sleep together again until we are married. We decided this because both of us had planned on waiting until marriage, and we still think it is important to wait, especially important because we want to build up our relationships with God, and we think waiting will ultimately make our relationships with Him and our relationship with each other stronger as well.

Well, we've been living together for 5 years, had a baby 3 years ago and wouldn't change anything. I am not religious, nor is Jay so we were perfectly fine with living and sleeping together before marriage. We've come through a lot together, experienced great highs and lows and after 5 years he proposed because he (we)realised that we were a good team even at the worst of times and we loved each other more than ever. I personally support living (and sleeping) together before marriage as that's the only way to get to know somebody real well. Sex is a very important part of a relationship for me and I HAD to know that everything would work well between us before we make this big decision. I am not judging anyone, this is just the way I do things. But I've got the utmost respect for people who say no to these things and then are able to have a great and lasting marriage.

My fiance and I are not living together and we won't be until we get married. We both come from very conservative Baptist families, so my parents would not be paying for a wedding if we moved in together. As of right now, we're both in college and have apartments, so we spend the night at one of our places every night, but when we graduate in a couple of weeks I will be moving back in with my parents (to save $$$) and he will be moving 2 hours away to work. I like the situation we have right now because we both have our own places, but spend most of our time together. It's like living together, but not quite.

My FI and I don't live together, it is both aour first marriages and we are waiting.. awww. (You know how hard it is when you have been dating 3 1/2 years!) But it so important to us both to wait and will be sooo worth it in the end. Not to mention I agree with you on how fun it will be to cozy up together in our first apt. together as husband and wife. But give props to the poor guy - no fun time till wedding night. He really luvs me. ;D

Although I (nor does my fiance) feel bound to please our families in content such as this, our personal decision before God & our own values is to just wait on this, because we're going to be together...foreverrrrr anyway.!! It's worth the wait, and we spend enough time together now to where it's not a void or a feeling of loss needing to wake up side by side. I think it's really just a matter of what you want to do as a couple. If you try to please everyone else, someone is always going to end up disappointed.

My future hubby and I moved in with each other after we were together for about two years and we basically knew at that point we would someday get engaged... now another year and a half later we are and I wouldn't have it any other way. We have gotten so much closer since we moved in and I think it's a great idea to do so as long as the couple is serious and committed to the relationship. I have a sociology class right now about family and relationships and supposedly research shows that cohabitating couples are more likely to divorce but I think that only goes for those that move in together and aren't taking the whole thing seriously... Living in sin is the way to go! ;-)

Oh... and my parents didn't mind it; however, we didn't tell his for a while because they're pretty traditional. Once they knew they were perfectly fine with it.

Living in sin sisters!! We have been officially living together for almost two years now, about six months after we started dating. We never really decided on it either, just kind of happened! We became very close almost right away, and I was constantly over at his apt. He even joked after two weeks for me to move in, and I said I want to stay at my parents a while longer to save money. Well that didn't happen - I started staying at his place during the weekends, then weekends + one night each week, and so on until my dad called after I hadn't been home for a month and asked if I needed to change my address! I was always a bit frightened to tell my parents, because my dad is a devout catholic. So are Matt's parents. We literally spend 90% of our time together - we live together, work together, carpool, and are together almost every night unless he's at his brother's or I'm meeting up with friends. I love being with him and wouldn't change a thing. :)

Waylon and I are not living together because we do not believe in living together before marriage. Call it old fashion but it works for us and I can describe how much I look forward to living with him and making all those big dicisions that "married people" make. To me, if we were living together it would be like we are already married and when we got married there wouldn't be AS MUCH to look forward to...there would be a few things but I dont think it would feel as special. Everyone is different but we are doing things the right way...and I wouldn't want it any other way : )

Marriage itself is an old old old fashion tradition..So if you are going to do the whole marriage thing, why not do it the right way?

I'm living in sin and lovin' it!

We had originally moved in together 5 years ago after 12 months of dating to save money. I was moving away to go to university, he wanted to move away for better employment opportunities, so it was convienent. We have been living together ever since!

I have to say that I am surprised at how many of you ladies are not living together - a good surprised! I commened your decision to wait until after getting married, and stick to your values and beliefs. I have a very large french catholic family, and they definitely did not appreciate our decision.

I would just like to give kudos to all of the smart women making choices that will best fit them! I am somewhat of a realist, I do not believe in fairytales... but I do like them just the same :)

We don't live together yet we're moving in together a month before our wedding

Well jeff and i did everything a little backwards. We had our daughter then bought the house and now are planning the wedding.

I think living together is great because you know what to expect before the marriage and you can see the limits/expectations of your roles within the household. For those who are not living together before marriage, make sure you have the talk when you first move in or even before about your expectations of each other..
For example, I do most of the cooking, but he does the dishes! I usually sweep and dust, and he does the laundry! When I dont feel like cooking, he sometimes cooks for me (tacos...lol) and I will help him with the food.
When the baby comes, he will be doing most of the dishes and the laundry!

Sin?? Call t whatever you want to call it, I get sad when he goes to work in the morning, and no matter what anybody says seeing him every night is the highlight of my day. He says the highlight of his day is cuddling me when we go to sleep. Bear in mind we were high school sweet hearts, (who were never intimate) then we rekindled the flame 4 years ago and we have never spent a day apart <3

My FI and I don't live together either...we think that its worth the wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Me and my H2B live together and have been for (8) years.

We've been living together for awhile, I would not want it any other way! We both know the stats on marriage and think the right way is to know what you're getting into before you sign a contract for life.

Sining all the way!!!! But now we are married!!!!

I have to admit I'm a siner :) me and my H2B didnt plan on moving to gether but after he graduated from college he got a job down here (where i live) and need a place closer to work--he planned on getting his own place--but everything fit perfect--im happy, he's happy--so is both our families--so i wouldnt change living in sin 4 nothing :)

I say never do anything because it is expected of you!

We have been living together before the engagement I think its a great way to be sure you can handle it! There is alot of diff between living together and dating

Im a sinner, and not ashamed of it!
Me and my husband to be are living together i cant imagine a moment without him he moved half way across the country for me now im doing it for him (hes in the airforce) .why shouldnt you be with the person you love before marriage or not? we are high school sweethearts the only thing I didnt know about him was what he was like to live with why not see whats its like before the big committment? My mom was sad to see me leave but readily helped me pack! When making a big change its good to have your parents support and i have very supportive parents!

Wow. I am surprised at the number of people who posted they are waiting.

I, too am in your ranks. My FH and I are waiting for the wedding night, even though we will be dating/engaged for five years before getting married.

Our decision to wait was based on religious and moral beliefs, and was mutual. Even though it is not easy, I am glad of our decision.

Now, living together while dating is a tricky situation for me. Some studies have indicated that living with and/or sleeping with your partner before marriage has a higher divorce rate than those who didn't. That seems to contraindicate the common, and seemingly common-sense approach of getting to know your future spouse better by living together.

However, we do semi live together. He lives across town, with his family. Neither one of us have vehicles, so it is difficult to get around. If I go to his house for supper, I'll stay the night. He'll often come over for the weekends. He has his own bed at my house, and when I stay at his house, he gives me his bed and sleeps on the couch. Isn't that sweet??

My FI's father is a Paster and I was worried what they would think if we did and it has been 5 months now. I knew they would not agree but they love their son and they love me too and we are getting married in October and they respect the fact that we are adults. I think people should live together to make sure they are compatable anyway. Life is short...do you...and they will just have to deal with it or not visit you at your house until after the wedding if they so choose.....good luck.

HEY GIRL, MY FUTURE HUBBY 2B AND I HAVE LIVED TOGETHER FOR THE LAST 2 YRS. WE HAVE BEEN TOGETHER 4 1/2 YEARS. FAMILY DIDN'T OPENLY OBJECT. I HAD JUST GRADUATED COLLEGE AND THEY COULDN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO ANYMORE SO I GUESS THEY DECIDED TO HOLD THEIR TONGUE ABOUT IT LOL I COULD TELL THEY WEREN'T CRAZY ABOUT THE IDEA BUT NO MAJOR PROBLEMS. THEY'RE 100% OKAY WITH IT NOW AND CAN'T WAIT FOR MY MAN TO BE THEIR FUTURE SIL. SOMETIMES I DO WISH WE WOULD'VE WAITED TO MOVE IN TOGETHER JUST BECAUSE LIKE YOU WROTE THEIR WOULD'VE BEEN SOMETHING REALLY SPECIAL ABOUT THAT FIRST TIME YOU GET TO STAY IN YOUR HOME TOGETHER. BUT I WOULDN'T TRADE THE LAST 2 YEARS AND HOW THINGS HAVE GONE FOR ANYTHING. WE HAVE BECOME 10X CLOSER. WE ARE WAITING TO buy OUR FIRST HOUSE UNTIL AFTER WE'RE MARRIED. SOMETHING BIG FOR US TO DO TOGETHER TO LOOK FORWARD TO :)

My FH And I Have Been Living Together For 2 Years We Moved In With Each Oher After Dating 2 Months.

Living is sin for sure, thanks to the expesive market where I live we moved in four months after we met. My parents are pretty easy going so said nothing but thought much. Things are still going great and am marrying the man i love next year. But that is not for everyone do it on your own values and beliefs I saw.

I was a sinner...for a year...and I was also hiding it from my parents and family (his family is ok with it). When we told my family we're getting married they finally figured our we're living together for a year. There was a huge drama and my parents told me they were dissapointed and ashamed of me. They even threatened not to give blessings for my wedding...Finally...after I agree to move out and live back with my mom until the wedding(which is 3 more months), they forgive me (kinda) and pretend nothing happened.

Big Sinner right here :P
