We asked Matthews what advice she gives to couples who say they are about to move in together. “The couple should have a realistic conversation about what they would do if the relationship took a turn for the worse once they moved in together. They might discuss things like purchases made, contracts and leases and how they would split things if they needed to leave the relationship.” She also says discussing the purpose behind moving in together matters. “I would also advise couples to talk about values, family of origin issues, finances, communication, and their overall goal for living together.”
