7 Tips for moving in together


Living together is the ultimate test of commitment in one's life. When two people start sharing a space, many new challenges come up that need to be dealt with wisely. Of course, there are situations where you want to barge out of place, but so does your partner. Moving in together may seem very exciting, but there are few ways to make the time worthwhile.

1.Get to know each other's goals for the relationship

Most of us think that moving in is the "ultimate" step; only marriage follows after that. However, sometimes people don't think of future commitments. Few people believe in living life day by day, without any consideration of future obligations. You might be thinking of your grand entry on your wedding day, while your partner may be thinking of what to have for dinner tonight. It is essential to be on the same page from the start of the relationship and after living together.

2.Stay together before living together

Staying together initially before moving in can save a lot of time and fights. Plan weekend night stays or a few days trip before deciding to move in together. If you both are comfortable enough even when the other is not on their best behavior, moving in is a good option.

3.Come clean about your past fears

Communicate your worst fears; only then will you be able to live happily with your partner. Many people fear that they will not get personal time or the relationship will turn boring. Whatever you feel about moving in together, communicate it to your partner beforehand. There might be a good chance that they are feeling that way too, and you both can come up with solutions together.

4.Try a ‘trial’ mode

You can first live-in together for a few weeks or a month as a trial period to understand if you both are compatible enough. Many times, relationships don't work because the habits of one person lead to frustrating the other. After living together for a month, you will get to know about their habits and routine, and if you don't appreciate something, talk and come to a conclusion.

5.ME time is a must

There is a notion that once you two start living together, you have to do everything together. However, enjoying your time alone once in a while can lead to more excitement when you two are together. You don't have to be codependent on each other for every little thing. Go out for drinks with friends, binge your favorite series alone, or watch a movie in a different room while your partner reads a book separately.

6.Respect each other’s boundaries

You might feel excited about an impromptu visit by your best friend, while your partner might not like it. There might be few habits that you have to change and something they have to adjust while living together. For example, it only looks good in movies when a person plans a surprise party without informing others, especially if your partner is a reserved person. The other person might be having a bad day at work and now have to entertain other people. Set your boundaries and understand your partners.

7.Take a leap of faith

Life is unpredictable, and things don't work out as you plan them to be, sometimes. However, if you are invested in that person, a live-in relationship can be a delightful experience. Just don't force your ideas or beliefs on the other. So if you are sure that this is the person you want to share your ice cream with while watching their favorite series, take a leap of faith and live together.
