Why should I move in with my girl of 2 years, other than the fact we've been together for two years?

What are the tangibles of living of with your partner. Serious question.
Personally, I don't think you can TRULY know if you're compatible with someone until you live with them.

Yup. Next time you get in a argument, she'll be like "get your shyt and get out" :birdman:

You gonna be looking at her with the :to: "you sure?" :lupe:

She's gonna be like, "nikka you heard me" :ufdup:

Now you packing your bags while she playing TLC's "No scrubs" hella loud and you looking :shaq2::damn::to::sadbron::leostare::beli::mjcry::sadcam:

....all while she is on the phone texting her new nikka setting up a dikk appointment like :lolbron: and then looking at you with the :yeshrug: and then she says "you got 5 minutes breh and you gotta get :camby:"
:mjlol:

"Two heads are better than one"

Literally and figuratively.

You don't have to pay two rent/mortgage/water/cable/light bills.

Taxes work out better with two people.

You don't have to commute to each others house.

There's plenty of stuff.

And living together is only part of it. There's making investments, having kids, and a plethora of other thing teaming up with another human being can grant you.

My point was. If you aren't ready to explore those things after two years. The when/how will you know when you are ready. What are you waiting for?

She did s complete 180 once I signed for home. Once we moved in, things got worst and she never gave me her amount monthly like I said. I worked my regular job and part time job on weekends and was still struggling. It was awful man. I don't mind working but by me being a business major she made me look like a fool because I planned my budget around her giving me that money. I was gonna pay 70% and I feel that's fair actually more than fair cuz I know some people who split the bills in half. She was argumentative and always had something to say. She the type who is a quick thinker and can argue and debate u on anything.
No offense but it sounds like she was the alpha and you were the beta of that relationship and she figured she could play on you once the ink dried on that paper. They say what doesn't kill you, teaches you, salute for learning from experience

I moved in with my ex after dating for 4 years (18-22) after we both graduated from college. We lasted for 2 more after going out seperate ways:yeshrug:. As everyone else is saying, if you think she's the right one there's only 1 way to find out. Personally, I felt as if my girl and I grew apart. We went from spending quality time together (but living in seperate places) to basically coexisting in 2 seperate worlds (when living together). I wouldn't change anything and I'm glad I could learn from the experience. We're still cool tho, not a bad breakup at all. Looking back, I was too immature and wasn't ready for that settled down life:francis: guess I'll always be a rolling stone:manny:

And my point was, bring these points in first before mentioning it's been 2 years.

Thanks

If you're in your low to mid 20s, I would say wait. If you're in your late 20s and over, and you've been with her for two years, then it might make sense. I would hope that if you've been with her for two years, you two make a good couple. If not, then then you shouldn't even be dating much less moving in together.

Don't let ghost stories stop you if you really want to try it out. Either they moved in with someone too quickly or they weren't a good judge of character to begin with. I don't know how you can date someone for a year or two and not have a good gauge on who someone is. How do you not know if someone is clean or not after two years? Living together or not. How can you not know if someone is sensible with money after two years? Living together or not.

I live with my girlfriend and it's been great. But I'm not an idiot, so I had a good understanding of who I had been dealing with for the two plus years we dated before getting a place together. And it's been smooth sailing.

Peace
