We do not live together. He would like to and at times so would I. I agree with you on wanting it to feel like you are starting a new life together. I have also heard stories from people and they all say to wait because when you come home from the wedding or the HM, you don't feel any different if you live together before hand. He does have his own place now though. I haven't stayed there yet, but we have gone away together. But whatever- to each his own.

That's exactly it - everybody I've talked to who was living together before marriage says that it really didn't feel any different when they came back home after the wedding. I mean, they were married so it was different, but there was no feeling of starting a new life together, and I REALLY want that. We were thinking about maybe getting an apartment before and moving into a house after the wedding, and then there would be that feeling, but it's just not financially possible to do that.

I think it's easy right now to say 'of course it will be different, we'll be married' but that's only a prediction, since most of us here have actually experienced that yet.

Re: living together

I own my house and when my roomies were moving out so were his, it made sense at the time, 2 1/2 years later we still live together. I am so glad I did it bc I love falling asleep with him every night and waking up to him each morning!
