Living Together Before Marriage :
Morals , Money , and a Major Choice
Living Together Before Marriage :
Morals , Money , and a Major Choice
Not long ago , a choice of my survival had to be made . Many single men
and women struggle , not only in relationships , but with money issues ,
especially if they are in college or starting out as a young adult in
the world . In college , I had the choice to live with my significant
other or to manage on my own . I am sure others , not only myself , view
``managing ' their lives in roughly the same terms . Being alone makes
one independent , but lonely . Living alone , can be very empowering , but
discouraging in terms of money . Then there is always the factor of what
others may think on the outside . So , here in a college town , where many
choices made individually are overlooked externally due to our youth , it
was not only me , but society that was influencing my choice .
So , I had to choose , live with my significant other , who could have
alleviated my loneliness and ameliorated my bills or live alone and
forge on with my own terms , however daunting they may be . I pondered
this for some time , probably longer than others in my peer group , who
look at stepping in cohabitation as some right of passage that proves
you are older and committed to something more than you are already .
But , I did not care what my cohorts thought , this was my decision . I
did , however , consider my partner 's role in all of this and how this
would affect our futures .
Of course , we weren 't deciding to get married or even ``playing house '
to see if we could get closer to that point . So , the decision became
easier to make once I realized that . This was my friend and confidante ,
but not the person I could imagine spending the rest of my life with .
Yes , we would get along and even pretend to the outside world to be in
love , I suppose . But , this would be nothing more than a fascade and we
both knew it . But , the pressures that were building up around us in our
growing adulthood had made us reach ever farther out for something ,
flailing around for a bedrock that made us strong . We felt strong
together , but that was not the role suited for either of us . We were
just too young . I had no right to put more pressure on my friend , my
pretend soul mate . When searching for the truth in the world , we could
not lie to each other too .
In my eyes , I wasn 't looking for my soul mate to be there for me each
and every day , I was looking for someone to help square up my life . I
felt bond by the circle that had only me in it , a nice-looking circle
from the outside , but hollowness inside . I needed to fill it up , not
square it up . I thought that maybe moving...
