Living together is winning

Is it normal to end up at such a far from romantic point that you are counting on your fingers how many years you have been living together? Well, if you are looking for me, then I find myself exactly there. I still remember to the second and paving stone when and where we first kissed, but that significant migration from my house to his? No idea at all. I even had to leaf through my municipal records to dig up the exact date. By the way, I immediately forgot it again after that.

But now the case is that my cohabitation is particularly good news. For us and maybe also for you, if you live together at least. People who live together are the most affluent, above average satisfied AND healthy. Well, I just get a cat-in-the-bag feeling from this. The researchers from CBS looked at pay slips, what you have in the bank and other material pleasures, but also at satisfaction and health.

If you immediately think this is logical, because those cohabitants are the working dual-income earners without kids and thus comfortably off; think again. 29 percent of the subjects are far from rich, but still satisfied and healthy. So it can also be like that. Although I read quite recently in another study that having a bit of money does make you a bit happier, but so be it. Nitpicker, we were talking about living together here.

Even more good news, because you also immediately have the answer to the most annoying question among marriageable couples (these are the other questions you should never ask by the way). Why you are not married, indeed. We cohabiting folks are just happier. You have been warned. for marriage.
