So y’all are head over heels for each other, and are talking about taking the next step: moving in together. While there are many things to take into account when considering if you’re ready to share a living space with someone other than your family, moving in with your significant other is a huge step! Think you’re ready for it? Let’s find out.

How much junk do you have?

Over the years I have collected a fair amount of treasures. And don't forget the shoes, lots of shoes.

First of all it is not junk and I’m never getting rid of any of it.

I’ve dwindled my belongings down to 3 or 4 giant totes.

I am not much of a collector. Keep it simple is my philosophy.

How do you two intend to pay rent?

I plan to pay for most of it.

It's Free. We are going to ive with our parents.

I was sort of hoping she would take care of it…

We plan to split it 50/50.

Do either of you have furniture to bring to your new place?

I have a futon I plan to bring.

We both live with our parents currently, and don’t have anything yet.

We have a bed and a table. We will hit garage sales for the rest.

I have a living room set, she has a bedroom set.

How long have you two been together for?

It hasn't been that long but it feels really right.

We just celebrated our 6 month anniversary (that's a thing, right?)

We are past the initial infatuation phase. You know 2 to 3 months.

We have been going out for well over a year.

What do fights look like for you two love birds?

Our fights are mild—we talk things through really well.

Last time we fought, I left her at my mom’s house because I needed to be away from her.

Knockdown, drag out bad. On the bright side the make-ups are really, really good.

We never fight.

Are you ready to settle down and start thinking about marrying this woman?

Whoa! slow down. Let’s take this for a test drive before signing any papers.

I plan on putting a ring on it right after we get the keys.

Wait, what? No. Not at all.

We’ve discussed it, and are both thinking it is heading in that direction.

How are things going financially for the both of you?

We’re both stable in our careers.

She has a job, but I’m not currently working.

I have a job, but she isn’t working.

Neither of us have jobs currently.

Have you ever lived with someone before?

Only if summer camp counts?

I shared an apartment with friends.

With my old girlfriend, who just kicked me out.

Yes, when I was in a pretty serious relationship.

How are you going to split utilities?

I’ll take the gas and electric bills; she’ll take the water bill.

Those are bundled into the price of our rent.

We haven’t gotten that far into our planning yet.

What are utilities?

Tell me why you want to move in together.

Because it’s what makes the most sense financially.

Because we both need to get away from our family.

Because it would be more convenient for us to just live together.

Because I love her and want to spend every possible waking moment with her.

How will chores be divvied up?

I’ll do the living room and kitchen; she’ll do the bathroom and bedroom.

We’ll just clean up after ourselves and won’t have to worry about ‘divvying’ anything up.

If it gets dirty enough someone will just clean it. It will get done somehow.

She’ll be doing all the cleaning.

Who’s going to pay for groceries?

Whoever is going past the gorcery store. We don't really have a plan.

I’ll buy the groceries; she’ll make the dinner.

After paying for rent and utilities, we’ll have to ‘shop’ in our parents’ pantries.

We are going to set-up a shared account to cover expenses and food.
