Does moving in make/break relationships?

moving in can make or break it, and with any relationship there are no guarantees at all, just be true to yourself, and sometimes all works out and u really do end up being happy, theres just no way to know what lies in the future for any of us.

Moving in together is basically the same thing as marriage. If you guys decide that living together isnt going good, then its most likely going to end the relaionship. Think about it..if you cant live together there really are no excuses..if things were stressful and money was low or something you can just blame it on "bad times"..because a couple thats meant to be together is suppose to be there for eachother through everything.

Just be your self..live how you normally would if you were living alone..make sure certain things are understood though, especially money issues and the such. Money is the surest way to break up a couple living together, because people tend to have incredibly different spending patterns.

Honestly it could do either , you dont really know a person until you spend every day with them and live with them and see how they are around home and comfortable, there will be things that annoy the poo out of you and hard times because living with someone is a adjustment but It can work and you never really know what a mistake is until you make it you know? also another big factor is how long you have been dating because if its only been 3 wks it may be harder than if you have been dating a year and I know it sounds crazy that I would even mention 3 wks as a option but I know people who have done it and it ended badly

It's a good idea to live together first. It's taking the other person for a test drive, so to speak. I would recommend his, hers and ours checking accounts. Go by percentages compared to what each of you make (for example: if you make 200.00 a week and he makes 600.00, you'd put 1/3 of the budget into the joint account and he would put in 2/3). Pay your joint bills with the joint account but each of you keep your personal bills (credit cards, department store, etc..) separate along with your own personal money. If there's a break-up, it's a lot easier to do so. Money is the biggest problem between couples and this would prevent a lot of that.

You like him? You're moving in with a guy that you "like"? Are you kidding me? Moving in is practically one step before marriage. If you aren't in love (and I don't mean googly eyes, butterflies in your stomach love...I mean REAL love) then it won't last and it will be a disaster.

do NOT make any purchases for large items together.......unless and until you are married......

it can make or break a relationship depending on the people involved....

You shouldn't have to try so hard. He will find little habits about you that he doesn't like. He will also have habits that you don't like. It's life.
