Couples need to live together before marriage, and then get married after some time, what if they can't live together? There is no need to rush, you will always have time to get married!
Living together in relationships make marriage worst most times. It often reduce the dignity and respect of the woman. And most time such couple even end up not getting married to each other. Blind and unrealistic love can be the cause of most marital problem. Couples are meant to study themselves during relationship. It's not all relationship that will lead to marriage. A broken relationship is highly better than a broken home. Some people manage their relationship and hoping things will get better after marriage. When I say "manage", it isn't a financial stuff only. A guy that cheat or beat you during relationship has a high tendency to also do so after marriage. But most times we are carried away by love to notice so many things. Love is important in relationships and marriage but there are more things to watch and look for so one won't regret later.
