I get told by other people my age and people as old as my grandparents that it is a terrible sin to live under the same roof with my lady before making the commitment of marriage before God.
Id rather be sure I could actually live with someone before marriage than live my life worrying about something that doesn’t exist.

Smart. Just use birth control so you don't end up married or tied to them for life if it does not work out.

Smart. Simply put, wouldn’t you want to give it a test drive before committing to it for the rest of your life?

It’s 2022, not 1950. Living together ahead of time would like resolve some of the mass divorces we see today. Total mistake not to imo, dealbreaker if not

Do you live in 1950?
Absolutely shack up first.
You save money by not having 2 residences.
You get to see what they are "really" like, and not just the side they want you to see.
Married 18 years now, shacked up a year before we got hitched.

I did not live with 2nd hubby. Married 25 years. As far as my boys, I prefer they at least be engaged prior to moving in together. I think of it from point of view that If it was my daughter that I would want a least some show of commitment with the intent of marriage. I have seen too many women spend years and years with a man and never get man to propose and finally take step to marriage. So I don’t have a issue with them living together long as they believe this is the one. I haven’t made any of them sleep separately at our house or on vacations once the girlfriends were above 18 and their little brother was like 14 and knew not to make inappropriate comments about a girl being in his brother’s room.

I don’t really care what ppl do but test driving a new car is usually pretty fun and a good experience
The problem is down the road a few years if preventative maintenance wasn’t completed and the warranty runs out.

Can you not tell what it would be like to live with someone by just spending several nights and weekends with them? I don't get how you can't see that someone would be shitty to live with after being with them for a few months

Just have a kid before... that will really test you.

Do what you think you should, but don't expect living together to impact whether or not you will be divorced.

Exactly - it’s really the people involved - not whether or not they lived together -I know tons of people who are divorced who lived together and tons are who didn’t and are divorced - same for those that are still married

Definitely different times. Almost everyone I knew had 2 apartments, etc., mostly for show, in the early 80's. Parents would sometimes wonder why they could never get X on the phone.

Would you pay the same for a used model as one of the show room floor?
How much wear and tare would you tolerate?

It's a sin, but who is casting stones? I didn't live with my wife before we got married, and are happily married with two beautiful babies.
The argument that you have to live together is false. If you don't completely know the person you're marrying beforehand, that's on you. Doesn't have anything to do with living together.
On the other hand, I do understand the premise. But as I said before, it's not necessary like some would lead you to believe.

If you think this one issue in your umpteenth year of life will be the deciding factor on whether or not you enter heaven or hell. You have a vast misunderstanding of God and the Gospel.
