From the Millennial generation onward, “Do you want to move in together?” has become almost a pre-proposal proposal. With less pressure on people to get married, more and more couples are trying out cohabitation first and seeing if it works out well, which, honestly, seems like a very wise path to take. But it doesn’t always go swimmingly…
