Live-in

[ulyssa_marie]

Nowadays, it is best to get to know your partner the best you can before marriage. This is why people assume "living in" as the best solution .

If you DO choose to "live in", be responsible enough to keep your hands to yourselves. Remember, it's to get to know your partner and his/her way of living and not an opportunity to have non-stop s.ex.


The reason why living-in has such a bad reputation nowadays, is that people are not RESPONSIBLE enough and end up getting pregnant before the marriage is agreed upon.


Thus, living in or not, is not bad or good. It only depends on how we deal with ourselves in the situation that will tell.

hahah! i'm surprised with your concern for women sir. plauditte!
hehehe...

living in might appear as scandalous or immoral or may create a bad reputation on me but i am no actress or saint that i have to maintain a good image and besides, i don't give a fart on what people think about me. they judge because they don't have anything else to do. i don't see why it would be a disadvantage on me when it's just like living together with a friend in one apartment. if it fails, then i'll just move out. i am an emotional person and i invest as much of my feelings toward that person. if that person rejects me, then i can just easily pack up my things and leave without worrying about getting a lawyer to file an annulment.


and about the "lata/rotten" reputation, do you mean to say that if a girl lives with a boy then society would presume that the girl's been overused and abused? that's a bit disturbing isn't it?

i couldn't agree with you more! cheers

IMHO..

I'm not in favor of live-in though I have lots of friends who went thru this and some are couples now while the others broke up.

Living in together is not a solution if you want to get to know your partner better. It's emotionally draining on girl's part if things won't work out well. Marriage is not at all bed of roses. It's going thru thick and thin. While your still lovers pa, then work out your differences. Lay all your cards.

But we can't really tell. There are lots of reasons why some couples go thru it. So let's hope for them the best of everything. =)

ok ra ang lalake ana, pero ang babaye? ma-looy ko sa babaye oy

[mio]

but i agree, live-in... murag practicum. it unmasks the true characters of the partners. kay there is no CTRL-Z once married na.

Agree ko ani.

ok ra na xa mababae o lalaki... pero anha na ko malooy if ang usa nila, mgkalisod na tungod sa ila kahimtang na live-in.

I've been in that situation before and I have no regrets. Same as my ex. We both enjoy the company together, and when we feel that we need to go our separate ways, walay daghan storya ug hasol. Wala nami nghasol about sa conjugal properties (of course, we both still know what mine and what hers), walay daghan document na dapat lihokon, buwag na ditso.

Pero of course, time will come that I will choose to settle down. And when that time comes, wala nang atrasan.

Dili mn jd ing ana kabati ang live in. Pero kung ang laki, mgpakasal jd, aw... wala jd live in ciguro na mahitabo. mao ra mn guro na ang gihuwat sa mga girls...

only wimp women think this way, because a strong woman doesnt care or give a sh*t what people around her will think or say. its her life and she should live it the way she wants and not back down just because some people are against it.

lets say para nimo sir alkansi, mas alkansi para nako ang babaye nga nagminyo unya dili happy sa iyang kaminyuon tungod kay na realize niya iyang bana palahubog,ug naa pay kabit, daghan pa kaayong bisyo (nang gawas human nila ug minyo), unya intawon ang asawa nang yayat na inatiman sa ilang mga anak. di kabiya sa kaminyuon kay mahal ang annulment ug tungod pod kay daghan na silag anak,so nag antos nalang ang asawa sa sitwasyon nila. (now do you think this is fair?)

i may sound very liberated when it comes to relationship and marriage but i honestly think that nowadays live in is the best way to go that if you are smart. .

korek! i totally agree with ms. nitwit

I'm in favor of trial marriage or llive in. Pra lang jud maghibaw-anay sa batasan. Theirs a lot of cases na sa marriage na mang-gawas ang batasan thats true. I can attest to that. So, what ever it takes to make both ends meet dapat buhaton, kay louy kaayo ang mga bata in the event na maka-buwag ra diay gihapon during marriage.

[bastywarts]
