None. But I am moving in with my boyfriend next year :j.
I am 32 and been living alone since 19 (apart from a house share when travelling).
It is first time living with a partner for him too and we are aware our lives are gonna change sooooo much :eek: but we are super excited too

2 - I moved to Liverpool to be with my ex and I lived in halls for a year then I moved in with him. That was not good, it was a car crash relationship somewhat. We broke up when our lease came up, he went back to his Mum and Dad and I moved into a shared house for 3 months before I gave up and moved back home.
I moved in with current OH after 3 months, supposedly for just a few months while I looked for my own place, and 6 years and 9 months later I'm still under his feet :rotfl:*The RK and FF fan club* #Family*Don’t Be Bitter- Glitter!* #LotsOfLove ‘Darling you’re my blood, you have my heartbeat’ Dad 20.02.200 -
Two. Previous partner - we were together for 3 years but only lived together for about 18 months. That ended badly and I moved away. My husband - have lived together for 26 years so far.Over futile odds
And laughed at by the gods
And now the final frame

One - my husband, 15 years together. Before that I lived alone; I had boyfriends but didn't want to live with any of them. Not sure I would even date again if anything happened to DH; much as I love him, I really liked living alone."Save £12k in 2019" #120 - £100,699.57/£100,0000

Only the one, we moved in together 15 months into our relationship and got married 2 years later....and divorced nearly 17 years after that.
I'm not sure if I would be able to live with someone else now, I've got too used to my own routine and hogging of the double bed.We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

Two, ex husband and new husband to be!0

3. First was ex-husband, moved in together on wedding day, together 15 years, did not end well. Second was "in-between boyfriend", moved in together after about 6 months, together 18 months, bit of a waster. Third was my now deceased 2nd DH. Moved in together after 6 months, married after 2 years, still very much together when he died. Total time together was 20 years. Have now lived alone for over 3 years and fully intend to stay that way!

Some people only exist as examples of what to avoid....0 -
Two, first one was a nightmare and only lasted three months of living together. He turned into a totally different person, aggressive, I locked myself in the bathroom on multiple occasions, also threw vases at me. Then there was the time I decided to treat him to a roast on a weekday and I literally got the sh*t ripped out of me for spending too much on a weekday meal and how he couldn't give a toss how long it's taken me.
Some people are the total opposite of who you think they are when you move in together.0 -

But back then (1981) it wasn't quite to usual to live together before or instead of marriage.
If I was not married these days, i wouldn't have any objection to moving in with a partner, if it felt right
It was 1999. I was the rebel then too as all my mates began moving in with their partners at uni. Uni ended, then we got married, then we lived together.Who made hogs and dogs and frogs?
