Should Couples Live Together before Marriage?

[earljahn]

for me its better if married gyud daan before living together kay sa mata sa tao o sa taas mao na dapat...
Pero decision nana sa couple if live in sila daan before getting married...its up to them

[ronz_rodz]

before marriage? like live in?? it's only good if both are mature enough to consider being together.. i mean if they are not yet ready to proceed to mariage why do they want to live together? it's simple.. maybe they wanna try to what it's like to me a married couple ...

but again.. if we consider the teaching of our religion since im a catholic.. it's a bad idea... basin makasala pa nuon ta ani.. mas maayo if legal...

i read somehwere that you have to STAY engaged for at least 6 months before you get married.. maypa you live together for the 6 months so you'll know the dynamics of living together nya di pa mo magmahay or like, have to get divorced or something. o,0

well, it depends sa couple..

think about the consequences in deciding things like this....

personally, i would like that if a couple are living together they should be married already.
its true that it would be good to know if you are compatible and can adjust to each other before marraige but what if the couple has a big fight?? they break up and go their separate ways? and then all the efforts of trying to make it work out during the time they were living together will go to waste.
whereas if the couple was already married and living together, i believe that they would work even harder to make things work out for both of them because they are fully committed to each other.

don't have a problem with this basta they should know their responsibilities.

for me...ok ra pud para if d namu magkasinabot in many ways puede pa mo moback out...i mean life in living together is a process of having your own family...kung baga nag trial and error pa mo...

not always true... it depends on the two actually of how they sort things out... both ways have pros into it... it's the couples' enduring love and commitment of overcoming the cons that matters, be it in living together before marriage or getting married first before living together....

my friend recently throw me this question:

Dapat ba mag live in muna before magpakasal (to know your partner better) o magpakasal muna before moving in (to avoid immorality issues) ?

[borgy1981]

live in muna para matilawan, if walay lami ilisdan ug lain (change flavor)...bitaw kidding aside..

u don't have to enter marriage or "living together" to know ur partner..even if ur still lovers u would know what to expect and expect the unexpected, be ready to love her/him in times of need (kay dali ra kaau nga happiness, mas masukod nimo if naa moy obstacle giatubang)... love unconditionally and be willing to "walk the extra mile" <--meaning do everything beyond what is required of u as a bf/gf; wife/husband....
