Keep your own place.Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Sometimes,at Some point U 2 MIGHT,,,need a little of your own space.

Sometimes Absence makes one go far far away and not come back

To much of being apart can go the other way...

2 months?

Hardly time for the rose tinted specs to have settled down let alone slipped a bit!

A rough guess would say the honeymoon period at the beginning of a relationship lasts roughly 6 to 9 months, you're not likely to see the little irritating things that can drive couples mad till after that kinda period, so, tho it sounds fantastic in principle.... I'd give it a good year (not a tyre....) before considering such a move, it gives you a chance to see the real each other and not just the fairytale stuff of new hormonal lusty relations...........



I believe you don't really get to know the person until you live together.

I married the guy I met at 14 and married 6 years later.
I still did not really know him!

Keep seperate places and stay together a few months to see how it works...

a good exit strategy is a beautifulll thing.

My ex practically lived at my place - particularly on the weekends. Had her own half the closet, drawers (cabinet, er, not the other drawers, though she had those too). It was nice. But the moving out part was very painful.

"moving in together"

Sounds like movie of the weekrolling on the floor laughing

**Moving in "to get her"**


seriously.. 2 months........ sounds like something we do in our 20's.

A better way to look at it might be..... at this age, is it really a smart thing to do to rush in again without getting to really know the other person well first?????
this would be even a bigger waste of precious time.
I mean getting so deeply involved so fast just to end up alone again because you just can't live together a year later.

I would think it much smarter to wait, don't rush, get to know them VERY well first, in 2 months you haven't even seen the real person yet! just the getting to know you-* put on front...* anyone can put on a false front for a short time...... but in the long run the front peels away.\


Then you will know who you are really dealing with.

Have we learned anything from our younger years??
dunno wave

the best advice I've seen to this point, though I must admit I have not read all the posts here. The internet is an awesome place to find information, and this is something you all need before you make a decision on anyone.

all the best to whatever your decision should be, but first a word from your sponsors. check out who you're sleeping with. Could be..................uuuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmm.

this is a free website to find out about anyone. from traffic violations to actual criminal records. I believe every man, and woman should know what they get themselves into.

Lot's of good advice here, most of it pretty sound.

2 months is nowhere near long enough - For some people. Then again, for some folks 2 years isn't long enough.

What applies to some does not necessarily apply to others.

Seems to me that if it's going to work then 2 months or even 2 weeks is plenty long enough - If it's not, then 2 decades wouldn't be long enough.

You are your own person and ultimately YOU and your guy are the ones who have to live with your decision(s). (And each other!)

If you think it'll work, (and it seems like you do!) then go for it! If it was meant to be, it will work and you'll cherish the extra time together. If not, then you'll discover it sooner rather than later and still have time to move on without the baggage that accrues with time.

Personally, I thank God each and every day that I made the "rash decision" to just up and leave everything I'd known and move 1,100 miles to the hills of East Tennessee. Oh sure, it was way too soon - I'd only known her for 2 1/2 months - But what's the time limit on playing the lottery before you hit the jackpot? I took a chance, spun the wheel and was rewarded with more love, happiness and peace of mind than I ever knew could exist!

Step up and spin the wheel, I say! True, you might go bust, but you might also hit the greatest jackpot life has to offer - Peace of mind, love, contentment... Happiness!

Luck to you and yours!
