Moving in with your partner? Talking about these 3 things first can smooth the way

I once worked with a couple where one partner wanted her spouse “to be less of an @sshole.” When we dug a bit deeper, what she really wanted was for him to vacuum. 

Lol! I just laughed tea out off of my nose! But seriously the little things,

like choosing which TV shows to watch or trying out a new recipe,

are not worth the energy to discuss IMHO as they are fleeting moments to be forgotten if they don't become an issue.

"A happy life is a happy wife" is the mantra that I stick to and it has seen me good for who knows how long

Living together with one's partner, always sleep in separate rooms on twin beds. Every individual needs personal space and time. A king-size bed in one room no matter how large is the perfect spring board for divorce,

Just don't do it. Men you can expect her to harass you non-stop to get married so she won't have to pay anything and the frequency of sex will plummet.

These topics are part of what every couple should know about each other before marriage.

No one should move in and live together without a marriage commitment of one man, one woman, one flesh, for one lifetime, because cohabiting couples are more likely to divorce if they marry in the future than couples who are married before living together.

cohabiting couples are more likely to divorce if they marry in the future than couples who are married before living together.

That sounds interesting, Jeremiah. Can you provide the statistical evidence for that?

In Japan, I’ve only met foreigners living together unmarried- not common here
