Very right?

A lot of folks in Europe and the US are not not married and are doing fine.

You African folks. Hope you are reading this. YOUR MASTERS ARE DOING JUST FINE. You better start emulating your MASTERS leading you to a fine place called ETERNAL BLISS. grin

As for me,its nt a bad idea,infact any man I'm to get married to,we will stay togeda for at least 3months,lets see hw we handle and tolerate each other before going to d big institution
Btw,I'm only talking abt people who are ready for marriage ,not teens please
That's how ladies get tagged hoes! And when it dn't work out? You cohabit with the next 3men again before finally getting married. Let me tell you, heard of the serial killer who was married many years, yet was killing women around his town and the towns people found it hard to believe his wife of many years didn't know. My point, some behavior can still be hiden and many with keen observation can still be detected without living together. Why cohabit? Even the word sounds ugly and wrong.

Cohabiting is not a good way of life

Any lady that cohabit with a guy who have not done anything to commit the relationship to her family is deceiving herself

In as much as he is feeding you he will have access to you and your possession

When he is done having you, you will be left with nothing and might not marry you at the end

The man has nothing to loose in this game, if you like become pregnant due to constant sex, if he doesn't want you as a wife you can't trap him with it

I don't know why people co-habit before marriage. I feel its a mixture of impatience, greed and quite disgusting (in my opinion)


Every single man deserves to enjoy his life as a bachelor to the fullest; If a lady wishes to visit, let her COME AND GO.

Depends on a whole lot of factors. A lot could go wrong with choosing to cohabit before getting married. On the flip side, you should'nt marry someone you have not spent sometime with.

How does the man behave? This question is important because most men will definitely see you finish if you stay with them for a long time with no serious commitment. To avoid this, get a commitment. However, be advised not to be caught with that kind of man because marriage is looooonnnnggg.

How does the woman behave? Are you the we don catch am crew? If because you stay with a man, you think and act like you already have the ring, your case is longgggggg.

What are the circumstances? Are you with a man/woman because you dont have money to stay on your own? Get a job. Don't let anyone throw you out in the middle of the night.

Cohabiting is best done between MATURE men and women that are independent emotionally and financially. In this case, you will be verryyyyy happyyy.
in nigeria if (God forbid) the partner dies in the house by mistake while cohabiting, the person will be accused of murder and may spend his life in jail. i dont even allow anyone pass a night in my house. i prefer meeting people in public places. i no fit shout

That poo is here to stay, nothing anyone can do about it.

"Lagos wife" started in the 1960s already. Arguably when "morality" was still high.
When girls hit tough time in expensive cities like PH, Lagos or Abuja, they suddenly know how far. Guys at times too.

I doubt if any woman on Nairaland will admit ever doing abortion. Yet that poo is common like Lacasera.

Anybody who wants to do it will. Nobody's opinion here is relevant in that regard. Not even mine. grin cheesy

Cohabiting is simply “living together with”. So, should unmarried folks live together?

Generally, married people live together, except for some rare exceptions of course. However, people seem to be divided in opinions when it comes to the question of whether or not couples that are not legally married should live together, for varying reasons.

It has become common to see young people who are engaged or merely dating cohabiting, and this seems either awkward or straight out wrong to certain people. For these people it either crosses their conservative boundaries or it runs against their logic.

According to Halima: “People who aren’t married yet shouldn’t be staying together. Cohabitation is for married people because they are more equipped to deal with the consequences, not unmarried couples.”

She also argued that people who aren’t married yet should create certain spaces for themselves to make the relationship more solid. Moreover, she added, if they get married they will have a whole lifetime to live together. So why the rush?

In agreeing with Halima, Blessing, a hairdresser said that a girl staying with her boyfriend or any partner she’s not legally married to only makes her a mere possession of her boyfriend and that locks her away from other potential relationships with the right people. According to her, young people should have the space and freedom to explore for themselves and living with a partner robs them of that.

However, Peter disagreed strongly. He argued that people who are hoping to get married could live together in preparation for their marriage. He insisted that living together builds a tighter bond between the couple and that they also learn more about themselves. He said too that living together will give them a glimpse of what being married to each other would be like, and with that they can decide whether or not they are willing to tie the knot in the long run. Moreover, he added, living together saves the cost of rent.

So, here’s a question for the readers: Is it appropriate for unmarried couples to live together?

In my opinion, I feel it's very wrong. If it were to be right countries like America where they cohabitation is rampant before marriage wouldn't have as much divorce as they do now...
I can't speak for all guys but for most cases I've seen, the parties involved get tired of each other and it always doesn't end well

All these people equating cohabitation with the ability to have sex at will, like peeps aren't fvcking each other senseless whilst living apart. undecided

Cohabitation whilst practical (cheaper to maintain one household than two especially when the couples spend more time together than apart) offers less protection than marriage.

Still, if the arrangement is spelt out from the onset who owns and gets to keep what in the event of a split, works out far cheaper and easier to go separate ways if that happens than in a marriage and subsequent divorce.

Swings and roundabouts.

Maybe I might reconsider if it were a two-room apartment. That way she does her business in her room while I stay in mine.
