Why Prospective Couples Should Live Together Before Marriage – Simi

The Nigerian singer Simi Kosoko, better known by her stage name Simi, has stated that she is in favor of prospective couples living together prior to marriage.

Simi opened up about her own experience in an open discussion on the most recent “Tea With Tay” podcast episode. She disclosed that she and her husband, Adekunle Gold, decided to cohabit before getting married.

The talented artist thinks that living together offers a special chance for partners to learn more about one another’s routines, tastes, and way of life, which eventually helps them make a more intelligent marriage decision.

She said, “I used to go over to Adekunle Gold’s place for us to spend time together.

“I am of the opinion that… Maybe I shouldn’t share this opinion because I feel like religious people might not agree with me. I personally think that people who want to get married should live together for a little bit before they do that. Because I don’t think you really know someone that you’re going to marry until you cohabit. The way someone is when they are outside in their best behaviour is different from how they are when they are cranky and they haven’t eaten or when they wake up in the morning or when they are snoring.

“When you live with someone you know all the sides to them, that is when you really know if you can do forever with them. Millions of people have gotten married without living together. But I personally think it’s a good idea to cohabit before marriage. It doesn’t have to be for long.” [CONTINUE READING HERE]
