Like they say, you don't know even half of the things about a person until you marry them. Then the kid gloves come off and you find out a lot of things you wish you never knew.

[MendaciousMarxist]

no

Don't rush to move in with someone you barely know. Give it time, let love grow; A year's worth of friendship will show if you're a good fit. Then you can make a commitment.

[coachTanthony]

Nope. You don't really know someone for quite sometime. I am talking at least a year.

[Avicenna]

Probably not, but exogenste circumstances could change my mind

[jennifer_bloom]

I would have to get married to move in with somebody and I might commit after 2 months of dating if we had been friends for over 6 months, but not if it was a different case.

[Guy13]

Not without Credit, Criminal, and Income Verification...

[ShellyB]

No I would not with someone I have only known for 2-3 months but I could imagine a situation where I knew somebody longer but only dated 2-3 months and felt really good about the relationship quickly because of knowing him longer. Also I will mention that for me, moving in with someone is the same as asking if I would accept a proposal to marry him, I would not officially move in with a guy unless we were engaged.

Did it once before and didn't turn out well. You need to know someone for many months, in different situations to determine what kind of person they are. Commitment, as well a knowledge of a person takes time.

[Asker]

As you said you had done this once before, would you mind me asking why you felt that was the right choice for you at that time?

[Screenwriter]

He seemed to have good points, was attractive and funny. But beneath that he had serious problems I didn't discover until many months later. And eventually he decided he wasn 't going to address those probems. I kept hoping and working on my own issues, but he didn't. Eventually our marriage ended. Took a long time because I thought I could "help" him. A fatal mistake. Only person who can help a person with a problem is a professional and that person.

[Sour-rose]

Oh god no. I can only imagine how bad it would go. My friend on my ps4 has been friends with me for... like 10+ years? He knows practically almost everything about me but not everything. Like I don't know about him. And if we were to meet? We agree we act like a couple who's been married for 60 years... fighting like one verbally... and physically. (it's a best friends thing) So to commit with someone I've known for 3 months... might as well not unpack

[tireduck]

It depends on the individuals who can make it work.
I say yes if you have money saved if a situation arises that the living situation with that person isn't working out and if you see yourself ad least being with this person for the next 5 years at least.
I say no if you have no money or no job backup for the move cuz then you are stuck in an awkward situation of being with an ex-partner and possibly meeting their hookups.

[Labokachulaa]

No, because you don't know enough about the person. Also, you want to have your own space so that if things go wrong you are not stuck or being kicked out.

[Weapon77]

No, that's a terrible idea. You can't properly know a person an evaluate the relationship's nature and potential in that little time.

[NewYorkCity]

If she has a job that gets her same salary as I make, yes, because I would at least know, that most likely she is not with me and decided to move in with me because of money, since she is fully capable of sustaining herself.

[Kiran_Yagami]

If you don't know someone after 2-3 months, what is a few more months going to tell you? If they're lying, they're lying. A few more months isn't going to make them tell the truth. If they aren't being forthcoming, they aren't being forthcoming. If you don't know someone after 2-3 months, then you need to move on.

[Songomatic]

If so much thought and energy was poured more into marriages than this, there would be no divorce. Lol

[snowboarder720]

Discovering another persons boundaries sometimes takes years. Understanding your own boundaries takes a lifetime. Understanding how to manage and respect each other also takes a lifetime.
A couple months will show nothing.

[Songomatic]

@snowboarder720 doesn’t take a lifetime for both partners to know they are both deserving of respect

[snowboarder720]

It isn’t really about respect as that’s given. It’s understanding each other and learning how the other person ticks.

[Kiran_Yagami]

@snowboarder720 It only takes years if both you and them aren't taking it seriously.

[snowboarder720]

People say and take their own mental health seriously but need to speak to a mental health therapist weekly to not go crazy. What makes you believe that understanding another person is easier?

[LovingJo]

Yes, I've been there, and done it... It can work.. You just have to know for sure, that you are comfortable with spending long periods of time together, and know that disagreements can be handled "appropriately"?

[Paulalove98]

3 months seems really fast unless we feel super content with one another. 6 months would be better for sure.

[FunkyMonkee]

Been there, done that. I met her in Aug., by late Sept. or early Oct., she invited me to live with her.

[Asker]

.. and I take it your no longer together?

[FunkyMonkee]

Correct. After 10 years together, the little mini-bitch started cheating on me!!

[FinalFantasyBro]

Nope, I don't think that's enough time to actually get to know the person.

[letuswaltzforthedead]

3 months would be minimum for me, 6 months would be better and a year would be max (if we met with the intention of dating).

[abc3643]

I did but that was sort of forced on me.
I would not do that again.

[Asker]

May I ask how long it lasted?

[abc3643]

Still married 21y 4m.

[t_time]

Asked my boyfriend to move in like 2 months of dating. Next year we bought. House together

[Asker]

How long did you know one another prior to dating if i may ask?

[t_time]

2 months lol

[t_time]

No joke

[Miristheiss]

No.

HELL NO.

Marriage. That when I would of and did move in with a romantic partner.

[snowboarder720]

So you would commit your life to them first before moving in with them?

[Vesuvius87]

Nope. If I'm committing then it's the whole permanent deal with me. I don't do trial periods.

[Likes2drive]

Not really, that’s too quick, probably need a year at least
