Was there anything about DH or something that they did that made you think twice about getting married? Im sure a lot of you learned things you didnt know about them.

FI is a video game junkie... but I can live with it..its his stress reliever!!

My only issue as well, but nothing I really stress over.

Thankfully...no. He's perfect for me...

ETA: FH is a big video game junkie too...but...I seem to have LIW addiction to balance it out.

I moved in with FH before we were engaged, and I'm SOOOOO happy we did. We had to g through what we refer to as our 'crazy months' to be able to coexist in the same household. I dont think that anything he does makes me not want to marry him, except for maybe not washing dishes!

I knew this before we lived together but I still don't like it. He does dip, and it completely grosses me out!! But he is considerate and tries not to do it around me, I just wish he would quit.

It's a big adjustment living togather and I'm glad we did it before we got married. We were already engaged, and I didn't seriously consider calling it off but there were times I didn't think we'd both make it!

I'm relieved to read of some of the other brides' 'crazy period' after moving in together. FH and I moved in together in March and while I'm not 2nd guessing marrying him, we've definitely had some fights over who is responsible for what, and in particular FH's messiness. I can't wait to get through the rough time!

You know what you have your good times and bad times and yes, there have been times we almost broke up, but we made it through. But that has changed and great deal and the good times out numbered and weighted the bad ones.

We have been living together for 8 years, there isnt anything that made me think twice about marrying him, but one thing i learned is he throws his clothes on the floor when he gets home and that used to bug me, but now i dont even waste my breath, i just pick them up and put them in the hamper.

Re: For those of you who moved in before you got married..

nothing that made me think twice about marrying him...but I did learn alot about him...for instance he doesn't think that its necessary to clean the inside of the tiolet....ewwwwwwww. (insert vomit icon here)
And he refuses to buy any major item for the house without looking to see what consumer reports says about each make and model of that item...then he calls his friend Rick....I tease him on this, but its sometimes annoying....(It took him 20 minutes to pick out a Sippie Cup for our son...its a little $4 plastic cup...so you can imagine how he is at big purchases.)
