Yes, absolutely - but not until my kids have flown the nest.

I did that, move in with my kids... It was either that, or we couldn't see each other anymore because of the distance.
It lasted 10-11 years. What can I say... it wasn't all bad? Lol

I see things like this: if I know, as the OP suggests:

It has happened! You've found THE one for you and you both are totally utterly happy. The time has come to move in together, you both absolutely really want this!


it means that I do trust this partner (otherwise I wouldn�t even think about living together). And if I trust him, I wouldn�t mind moving to the other side of the planet. If I wouldn�t trust him, I wouldn�t even think about moving to the first neighbourhood.

Yes, indeed.
But I would want certain things taken care of, legally. For instance that he can't chuck me out whenever he likes. Been in that situation for 10 years, he did threaten to throw me on the street a gazillion times as well. That was the man I thought I'd grow old with ... I trusted him 200% when I moved in. I found out later on that he even had the legal right to throw me out whenever he wanted to, because he owned the place.
I would never put myself in that position again, esp not since I am the one giving up my hearth and home, which is quite something. Waiting lists for a rental are 3-4 years here, so it's not like you can easily get a new home..

There would be conditions for me to move.

First of all I don't move unless married. I have never lived with anyone whom I wasn't married.

Second, the location has to be warmer rather than colder than where I live.

Third, he'd better have his financial shite together. I'm debt free and own my property.

Fourth, he has to be my life, breath and nectar to life.

I'm a simple girl, what can I say?

I don't worry about relocating or the colossal adjustments as long as he has a space enough for us to start and a nice neighborhood, then I would be willing to move.

Similar to the other thread, but different question:
It has happened! You've found THE one for you and you both are totally utterly happy. The time has come to move in together, you both absolutely really want this!

Meaning one has to move house ... Now your partner's house is slightly bigger, same quality home, but in a nicer neighbourhood and closer to your work.
Do you move... or not?



No I wouldn't. I think each should keep their own place until we feel that our relationship is very strong and then think of getting our own place.. for a few reasons

1) while utterly happy is fine.. it doesn't mean utterly happy will still be around a year from now.

2) our own places have memories. If we were to move in which each other I would prefer a memory free new place

3) her place (or his place).. will never be "our" place

there are practicalities to consider on both sides.
does either one of you have transfer opportunities for your job?
do either of you have other circumstances that make relocating more difficult.
like I don't have kids, but I have a mom who isn't getting any younger.
the other person might have children they don't want to uproot.

or moving might entail being pretty sure you could adjust to a climate change and the road conditions that go with it.

my easy answer is heck yeah I want to be with the person. but I'm a practical person and there would be questions to figure out.

In my twenties I would have in a heartbeat, 30's and 40's I would have most likely done it in the end now that I am close to mid 50's I am not so sure. I think honestly I would rather approach it with the idea of selling both homes and finding one that would be ours instead of his or mine. which would be going some since I must have looked at a 100 homes before I bought this one.

I think for me I would rather he moved in with me...

Yes.. I'm still pulling 40 (the load gets heavier, haha) but I feel the same way. Prefer to found a new place together or have him move in with me.
