【一起闲话英语】婚前同居-Living together before marriage(在线收听) |
Toni / Mozambique
speaker I think people should live together because by living together, you tend to find out, like the qualities in the partner that you want. And before marriage, it's important to confirm those qualities by living together.
Antoinette / United States
speaker I don't think men and women should live together before marriage. I think that they should make every effort to know each other, but I don't think they should live together. I guess more because of moral reasons, my own beliefs, religious beliefs. I think that you can get to know someone, you know your friends, you can get to know them, your girlfriends or your male friends, even though they don't live with you. So, I don't think there's a need to live together before marriage.
Sarah / England
speaker People should definitely live together before they get married. You don't really know if you're going to live with someone until you actually do. You don't really know the real person until you've lived with them and see them at their best and their worst moments. So, I think if you're going to get married and spend the rest of your life with someone, I think you should see them in all aspects of life before you take that plunge.
Isma / Indonesia
speaker I think it depends on the couple and the culture. For me, I don't think so, because it's not official yet that you're married, and it's not like my culture to live before you get married. It's usually you get married and then you live together, so I don't think I would get used to that culture.
Rese / Botswana
speaker I believe that people should live together before they get married, because marriage is a permanent contract, basically, and if you do not really know what you're getting into, then it might not work out that well. But if you lived with someone for a while, then you'd know exactly what you're getting into and what you expect in the future.
Warren / Canada
speaker Oh, yeah, I think it's really great if people lived together first. That way, they get to know each other and they'll know what it's going to be like. I think, quite often, people who start living together when they get married, that's when they first start to get to know each other. |
