Leap of Faith

So we have decided to make the leap...

After my last two relationships that began slow, progressed into something special, cohabitating happened and they both ended in a break-up. Regardless of how hard those break-ups were, the part of living together, i remember, nothing but bliss. I live well with boys...what can i say...! I have had 2 very serious relationships in the past. I promised myself that the next serious relationship would not end up cohabitating before marriage. I didn't want to just be that girl that lives with every one of her boyfriends. Not that i care what other people think...but i care what i think...and i really do believe its wrong...just something you should wait to do before marriage. Period. End of story. Its sacred and something couples have to look forward to. I have gone against my beliefs and my promises...once again. I must say though...times are a changin. I honestly don't know of one friends that has not lived with their partner at some time or another. It is just more acceptable now and many people do it. I do think it is hard to share this sort of news with parents that are very opposed to and down right refuse to accept the idea of cohabitating. They were raised differently and have very solid beliefs about this situation.

So the decision has been made. My roomate and i are parting ways. I cried one night last week thinking of moving out of my apartment. I really like it there. I love the location, the neighbors...&7^&9*&. I want to stay put is the bottom line. It is too expensive to stay there alone. It is too expensive to move into a one bedroom. I would almost be paying $600 more a month to live alone. Rent has increased all over and i cannot live anywhere in OC for what i pay now. So we made the executive decision to live together. JL will be moving into my one bedroom the 1st of August. We are so excited, thrilled, and couldn't be happier.

Wish me luck...
