I voted other...I think every situation is different and there is no right or wrong answer for everyone. Ralph and I lived together for about 3 weeks before we got married. We had been engaged for 11 months, my lease was up on my apartment end of Oct., our wedding date was Nov. 25. It was the best solution for us for those 3 weeks.

If I remember right, there was a study done in and couples who live together first actually have a higher divorce rate than those who do not.
