Nah, I've lived with my bf for like 8 years. We don't have plans to marry....mostly because we're too lazy and cheap for that crap, and also because we've both been married before and hated it.

But we do live together and we do just fine. We rarely have disagreements and they are never bad. We have similar interests. We pool our financial resources together and we don't keep tabs on who is paying more for what. We do all shopping together, including groceries, because we can both choose what we want and know how much we spend. We know each other's buttons and don't push them.

It is rare to be in a relationship like mine though. I don't know of anyone else who has it this easy with their significant other. So yeah, I agree....no marriage and no living together. . . Usually, anyway
