Moving in together brings an assortment of emotional issues. Can you really stand living with this person, sharing a kitchen with this person, a bed with this person, a bathroom with this person? You’re bound to learn new things about this person that you hadn’t realized before – whether it is how late they sleep, how often they wear a face mask or how lazy they are when it comes to cleaning. All of these things can take a toll on the relationship in one way or another.
On top of discovering what the person you’re dating is really like, there is also a financial aspect. Living together adds another dynamic to the relationship that is not all that fun and not all that sexy: finances. Not all relationships can endure adding this aspect. They crack under the pressure of due dates and the awkwardness of asking your partner to fork up their half of the electric bill.
With that said, moving in together can be an exciting time in a relationship … that is, if you’re ready. Sharing an apartment results in sharing a bed every day, shower sex and nightly homemade dinners, or, if we’re all being honest, ordering from Seamless. How can you tell if moving in together will be paradise or disaster? Here are ten major signs that you’re ready to make this next big step:
10. You’ve Had A Big Fight
Having a huge, blow-out fight and getting over it is the sign of a strong relationship. If you haven’t had a huge fight yet, it doesn’t mean that your relationship is so strong that you two will never fight. It means that it just hasn’t happened yet. All couples fight, no matter how much they get along. You are bound to fight eventually and you have to be sure that your relationship is strong enough to withstand the slamming doors and sleeping on the couch. The ability to repair what damage has been done to the relationship after the fight is the important part, especially if you plan on sharing a home.
