In today's world, marriage is a very complex process and many dread it because they feel they won't be successful. Most people feel marriage is expensive because of the rites to pay for that's why they prefer living together and having children first before thinking of marrying and paying these rites.

How do we call a person who haven't paid these rites but is living with a partner and they both have children? Are they married? Others say they have to test their wives or husbands to know if they would satisfy them sexually before they marry. They feel if they marry before this process, they may not know if their wives would conceive children for them and they may end up regretting the marriage.

What do you think? Should a man or woman follow the due process or they can cohabit, then later, they think of marrying? Is it risky to cohabit because it's possible your spouse may not like you again after spending time with you and may dumped you with the excuse that you guys aren't married?

Let's talk.

Contest Hint

If someone lives with a woman and bears children without paying her bride price, do we say they are couples or married?
What's your view on cohabiting? Is it a short cut to getting married?

Are there advantages or disadvantages of cohabiting?
