Moving In Too Soon Can Hurt Your Relationship and Your Future

Relationships can be a tough thing to hold on to, especially if the both of you live far apart. This is where a lot of couples make their biggest and most detrimental mistake. The key question is, “How do you know when to take the relationship to the next level?”

Well, every couple is a different tandem, so there is no way to know if the time is right to join forces and move in together. However, there are a couple of things that you both can think about before you make this jump off the cliff into either soft, warm water or jagged, jolting rocks. Some of the other questions you should ask yourselves are:

• How long have you been together?
• How strong is your bond with each other?
• Can you handle living with their bad habits?
• Do you want to constantly have to share your space?
• Do you plan on spending the rest of your lives together?

To cut off the loose ends, if your answer to the last question is “no,” what is the point of trying to live together? If they are your friend as well as your lover, then this may pass off as being okay; however, if you are in a downward spiral, and you do not see yourself being with your other half in the long haul, there is no point in trying to move in together.

Length of the Relationship

There are a lucky few couples that only knew each other for a couple of months before moving in together that are actually still together today. Then, there is the other “not so lucky” 98% that have tried that same experiment and failed miserably. So think it through from a logical standpoint. You can't really know all that much about someone after two months, especially if you only spoke on Twitter or Facebook for the first of the two months. However, after a year, you will know how often they cut their toenails, and what they do with the clippings.

Time Spent Together

There are two types of couples in the world: “lovey dovey” and acquaintances. The “lovey dovey” couple are with each other at all times during the day and they do everything together, including clip their toenails. As for the other couple, the acquaintances, they would be lucky if they knew each others' birthdays. They probably only see each twice every two weeks, and one of those times is on Skype. If you are the “lovey dovey” couple that spend every second of the day with each other, your transition when moving in together may be smoother. If it is more like you see each other every once in a while, maybe you should try exchanging names and numbers so you can see each other more often.
