no not at all! I think me and my FH and 1 other couple are the only ones that dont live together. The book you get actually says things like if you live together what made you come to the decision..things like that ya know

They never asked and we never told. Of course the addresses that we filled out are different from each others.

Yes and yes!! He talked a little about it & then gave us a pamphlet!! It was fine, I think they take it a little better these days then they used to.

i dont think its a big deal. they ask your address when you meet with him but thats it. so many people live together now a days i wouldnt lie, just be honest

The priest was never present for the discussions. We had leaders (married couples from the parish) that led group discussions. I don't believe they ever asked specifically if anyone lived together. A few couples offered up the information when responded to questions from the leaders. HTH

We weren't planning on it...but our group was so cool it didn't even matter. I've heard horror stories from other couples though...so...just feel them out first.

good luck!

I think we did, I don't remember if they asked that but we didn't lie at all and they were ok with everything, even raising the kids jewish.

They didnt really ask that, but in our group sessions (without a priest) it was pretty comfortable and two of the couples revealed that they did live together, and no one judged them.

we told the truth & they didnt really make a huge deal about it... but i do remember that they read us stats that prove living together before marriage gives you higher odds for divorce

We haven't done precana yet, but foccus (which is before precana in our church) and right now we don't live together but will be once we start precana in June. Based on the 'quiz' we did for foccus there was a section about cohabitating couples so I really don't see what the issue is anymore. It's a lot more common now.

Re: girls that did precana?????

the priest never asked us. we put two diffrent addresses on our application. when we took the test we answered the living together question. that was in the FOCUS class. the other part we had to go to was 2 days long we went on a weekend for 6 hours each day. we listened to a bunch of diffrent people talking about diffrent topic and that was it. we were never asked by a priest if we live togeher
