My girlfriend and I have been together for four months. She lives with her sister and her husband and daughter. She was just starting a new job and trying to save a little money when I met her, so that's why she didn't have her own place.
Well, lately she's been moving things in my house a little at a time, but she still talks about getting her own apartment and how she plans on doing that soon. She basically lives at my house now, but keeps half of her stuff in storage at her dad's and some stuff at her sister's. I could see myself staying with her for awhile, but this moving in nonsense is a big step.
When we first started dating, I wanted to keep f*cking other girls too, but she's eventually won out, she's a good girl and a definite keeper. But this "living together" seems so serious. She's head over heels for me, cooks, does laundry, keeps a clean house, whatever.
I'm rambling, but my question is, is it a good idea to live with a chick for awhile before even thinking about marriage. Should I wait for a year or so? The funny thing is, as more days go by, her moving in seems less and less of a hassle. Any comments?
