When is the right time to move in together?
Moving in together is a very serious decision for every couple. However, when you and your partner haven’t spent much time together, as often happens with long distance relationships, how can you tell if it’s the right time to live under the same roof?  Should you take it slowly and live separately in the same city for a while? Or should we move in together straight away? Sharing a residence is a practical declaration of your long term commitment and you don’t want to jump into it prematurely, running the risk of harming your connection.

We've only visited each other twice. Him for two weeks, before exams, and me for three months over the winter. Before I came we planned for 'alone time' so that we wouldn't get tired of each other. But that never happened. We couldn't get enough of each other. I went to doctor appointments, and on errand runs whenever he did. If he had to go to the store (just five minutes away) or down to the basement I went, too. Now I'm back home, studying, so that I can go to school where he lives. it'll be a long year, but at the end of it we'll be together for as long as we want.

I like this article because its exactly the way you should try it when you are in a long distance relationship, every time I visit I stay longer, I\\\'m up to staying for a little over a month at a time now and i visit every 2 months I wish you would have more articles on LDRs.

The article does make a good point: spending some romantic time together every once in a blue moon is not the same as seeing that person everyday, for who he/she really is, and not just on \"best behavior\". However, I believe that if two people are truly in love with each other, the little annoying things won\'t be an issue. I read a book by Dr. Dobson where he said \" don\'t marry the person you can live with; marry the person you can\'t live without.\" If that person really is the one you can\'t live without, then the rest will find a way to work out.
