Although it is talked about in a hush-hush manner, live-In relationships are becoming a popular choice among millennials. They can be pretty exciting. You get to be with your favourite person all the time, and the best part is you don’t have to say goodbye. You get to spend all your time with them, and it definitely helps you get to know each other and decide whether it would be okay to get married.
Live-In relationships can be both fun and trouble. Here are things every live-in couple will relate to:
You are dependent on them for every little thing
And you do not mind it, because you are with them all the time.
You have seen each other behave in the weirdest way
And you don’t mind it because you love being weird with them.
Your friends are their friends, and their friends are your friends
It’s like you have one friend circle, one life.
You don’t need a therapy dog
Because every time you get back from work, you know your partner is waiting for you.
The never-ending fight for the remote
But, in the end, you will learn to settle down and have a proper schedule for TV.
You start talking like each other
And you don’t even realize it until someone else points it out. When they do, you profusely disagree.
“Shaadi se pehle saath rehte ho? Parents ko pata hai?” is one line you hear on a daily basis
Probably because these people have nothing better in their lives.
You have way too many inside jokes
And no one really understands or finds them funny.
You share everything
From chargers to clothes, there is no bar. If there is the last slice of cheesecake left, you will share it.
You feel comfortable around them
It is so comfortable that you don’t even feel to fulfill basic hygiene needs.
Your partner is more like your best friend
There are days when you forget that he/she is the one you’re in love with. You feel like you are living with your best friend.
You can talk about anything gross without feeling uncomfortable
Conversations about poop or periods are not uncomfortable, also you can fart in front of each other.
Being in a live-in relationship comes with both perks and tough situations. Overall it is like to come home, and know that you are not alone in the cruel world.
