10. Are you willing to give up your apartment independence? When you’re in love, you have to decide if you’re emotionally and intellectually mature enough to sacrifice some freedom and space in the name of love and compromise.
11. Does your partner have lifestyle habits that are a pet peeve for you? A little annoyance can turn into relationship road block when you live together and feel like your lifestyles aren’t in sync. i.e: smoking, staying up late, being an early bird, etc.
12. Are you ok with letting your boyfriend see you at your worst? And vice versa? You can’t aways get out of bed half an hour before him to doll yourself up. This isn’t just a no-makeup deal – when you have food poisoning, he’s going to be witness to that too.
13. Does one of you value alone time more than the other? You can often feel a little suffocated if you share a space with someone, and healthy separation disappears. Think about breathing space and the importance of it in your relationship.
14. Finally and most importantly, do you guys have practice communicating and being honest with each other? If you won’t have a good track record of trust and honesty, living together is going to be a bumpy road.
