live-in or not?

For me there's nothing wrong sa Live-In issues. My soon to be hubby and I (getting married on May 15, 2015) are living together for almost 3 years. at first mahirap kasi naghahanap pa lang sya ng work, ako ok naman ang work ko. nung wala pa syang work sa parents ko kami nakatira pero nung nagkawork sya after 4months e nag separate na kami. masaya, kasi lagi mo syang kasama, madaming challenge na hinarap pero nalagpasan at natuto kami. kung sa live-in pa lang kaya ka na nyang panindigan at kaya nyong ma solve ang mga problema what more pag kasal na kayo diba? ang importante naman e Live-In man o kasal na e nagmamahalan kayo, tanggap nyo ang isat isa sa kabila ng pangit at magandang katangian nyo. ang susi sa "Forever" e gawin nyong bf/gf times ang inyong pagsasama para mag stay ang pagsasama nyo.

It is nice to read different pov's. I'm torn. Kaya as of now, parang double standard ang thinking ko, but definitely evolving as I read more about this topic.

Kasi iniisip ko nga naman, what's wrong ba with living in? Siguro bothered lang ako kasi di ko sya naka gisnan. There's something not right lang. But I realize need to open my mind as I'm sure this will definitely be an option for our kids' generation.

As for me, I got married once with my ex before we stayed together. Syempre noong time na iyon, virgin brides pa ang uso kaya live in was a no-no. And now that I have a bf, parang ayaw ko nanga ikasal kasi I see no point as I've been there, done that. Besides, I don't think we can marry again sa Catholic Church.

Therefore pag may edad na like me, parang ok lang mag live in, pero for younger couples like sa kids ko, mas prefer ko ata to get married first.
