live in- how is it loveless?
by JuhiDua on Jul 20, 2007 11:33 AM

Its kind of funny to see some people commenting about a bond they don%u2019t fully understand. A live in relationship is definitely not a relationship based on convenience. And if they think it is, then for such people even marriage should be all about convenience. Just like in a marriage, partners in a live in relationship also have to go through a lot of adjustments and the very fact that you have moved in together echoes a lot of commitment. There are people here who called it a %u201Cno strings attached relationship.%u201D Such people have seriously warped ideas in their heads. How is it a no strings attached relationship when you are going back to each other every night and when you cook together, clean together, shop for home together, take care of each other and share all your worries and achievements? I lived alone in a rented apartment for four years before I moved in with my partner who was also living alone in an accommodation provided by his employers. We %u201Clived in%u201D for close to a year and a half before we got married. If we wanted a no strings attached relationship, there was scope enough to have a good time and move on. How is it convenient for me to leave my set house of 4 years, give up my freedom, look for another house and start adjusting with an individual and his ideas in life? How is it convenient for him to leave his free accommodation, leave his freedom, look for a rented apartment with me and start setting up a house from scratch?
