The concept of live-in relationship is when two people live-in together and decide not to get married in due course of time. It’s a western idea and lifestyle, which is being more acceptable in all societies gradually. Earlier it wasn’t accepted with same enthusiasm as it being now. Some couples find living together is easy but the other find lot of difficulties in it.

Researches have shown that most of the couple that spend lot of time living together are tend to marry and settle as family in a while. Imagine you being married and then you find out that you can’t live with that person? So it’s like a rehearsal before marriage.

• Duos are in love and want to spend more time together, so they think of settling down later on.

• They think both of them are compatible to each other and can spend their whole life together.

• Most of the people today believe that they cannot think of settling down with someone whom they have not lived with.

• People who think they are not ready for a family commitment and responsibility yet.

• It’s a good reality check for partners. Because once you live with someone you know the person more. Through time, a person’s true colours reveal.

• Couples who prefer their current lifestyle of enjoying life together i.e. travelling, shopping, and enjoying good food, etc. don’t want to get into family life. So they opt for it.

Keep in mind that the idea of living together ruin relationships is not supported in any research. Live-in together is a common and popular concept of settling down with partner among youngsters.

Though there are not many benefits to be talked of. One gets to know the reality when they enter such relationship and live with that. There are some issues to be settled and commitments to be made before getting into any relation. Like don’t forget to keep your expectations realistically and make the decision seriously and with great care. As long as both partners agreeable to this type of relationship, there shouldn’t be any problem. It’s all about being YOU TWO..!!!

This is most often seen as a customary fact now a days. Modern women are scared of committing in a relationship and what do they have to say for this. Well, they say that there are no eligible men anymore and the struggle is still on. Let’s see how much truth there is, in this fact.
Contrary to what woman now a days tell, I know a lot of men that are young, handsome, single with flourishing careers, fit and healthy on a look out for a serious relationship. These comments are straight from one such guy I spoke to. When asked to what extent was the woman he was seeing ready to commit in their relationship, he said that, “ I have been wanting to settle for a long time now but women seem to be a bit too interested in their careers. What they actually look for is just a casual lover who can take them to place in a big swanky car and spend huge bucks on them. They just don’t seem comfortable with high levels of commitment or to put in other words, they are just not ready to compromise their new found strength for anything under the sun.”

So we see that modern women today don’t want to compromise their freedom even for the emotional solace that this young, good looking man is ready to give him. If we look at this issue from a sociological point of view, we’ll see that this viewpoint is not limited only to a few men. Most eligible men now days confront the same issue. The fact is there are a score of young, talented men ready to commit but are unable to find partners. What is important to note here is that, there is no major difference in the number of single, available men and women and so we don’t face an imbalance.

So what is going wrong?
The prime factor is the social change. The social emancipation of women has been refreshingly vital and in the last 15 years. The moneys earned by women in present times have increased. We see more and more excelling academically and have moved into the mainstay career domain. A career has meant financial liberation allowing women to purchase their own apartments and cars and whole self-sufficient lifestyle unheard of two generations previously. And what’s more? Today women are able to conceive later if they want to. They also enjoy a sexual liberty unparalleled in modern society.

Hence it has nothing to do with men being less capable or women being more forward. The social change has had a rippled effect and hence men can be called as subtle victims to this change.
