I personally think that people who want to get married should live together for a little bit before they do that. Because I don\u2019t think you really know someone that you\u2019re going to marry until you cohabit. The way someone is when they are outside in their best behaviour is different from how they are when they are cranky and they haven\u2019t eaten or when they wake up in the morning or when they are snoring.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you live with someone you know all the sides to them, that is when you really know if you can do forever with them. Millions of people have gotten married without living together. But I personally think it\u2019s a good idea to cohabit before marriage.
