This is actually a hell of an eye opener. It seems the quicker ones lasted longest (but not forever). I've only ever moved in with a girl after going out for a year. They haven't lasted either but just goes to show that moving in quickly doesn't actually make or break a relationship. You can wait a year and break up a year later, or move in the same day and last 10 years. No set formula, either you'll be together and happy forever or you won't.
Fair enough I guess. I suppose you don't really know what someone's REALLY like till you live with them. If I'd moved in with my ex straight away, doubt we'd have remained together so long.
(Initial Disclaimer: This thread has NOTHING to do with my current dating situation. Is just in regards to a conversation I had over the weekend. Don't freak out, LC. )
So I was chatting to my folks over the weekend. Although I knew how they met etc, I only found out times involved last night. They met on a bus, got chatting. 6 days later they were engaged and 12 weeks later they were married. They're 27th anniversary is in a couple of days so I guess it worked out ok. What was it back then? Do you think it was because it wasn't really acceptable to live with someone before marriage?? These days people would be shocked if you did that.
I moved in with my last ex about 9 months after we started going out and we both thought at the time that might have been fast!
What's the quickest any of you have moved in a relationship?
It's a webcam thing where two people set it up and you get matched randomly with someone else using the service. To get an accurate description, (I'm NOT kidding) view south park.
In all seriousness though. There's def a girl here who Looks 100 times better than her pic and I catch myself looking every now and again wondering what she's doing here (or with me at all). Makes me glad it's NOT a better pic though, otherwise there'd be all sorts of competition.
I've spent a hefty portion of the day hearing about how my english relatives were not too impressed with the amount of swearing and trying to count back how much of it was mine. I'd say MOST!
True. I would g about as far as answering a question or popping over for 2 mins.... maybe. But that fades out. Especially when you meet someone else. Wouldn't go for dinner or drinks with an ex. Or even meet them at all after a while. But that's just me.
I have NO feelings towards my exes at all so I don't have a problem if the last one needs a hand with something she knows I can do, like fix her phone or computer or something. I can go over to her, do these things, have a chat and then leave without a single thought to her "in that way". But in my experience, you lose touch. It's hard to stay friends cause there is usually a reason why you broke up and it remains pretty predominant in your head. I think it's possible but a lot of time has to go by before you can reach that level and you both need to want to be friends.
