For the majority of modern society, the idea of cohabitation has become as sensible and necessary as test-driving a car before you buy it.
In fact, when the topic’s brought to light in social media, it’s the analogy of choice used…
“For many couples, moving in together seems like the obvious, cost-efficient next step for their relationship,” states a recent trending article by Huffington Post. “You save money on bills, have someone to help out when bulbs and vents need changing, and you get to hang out with your best bud every night.”
The piece entitled 6 Signs It’s Too Soon to Move in Together, then elaborates on the various reasons that may indicate it’s not quite time to take the next step, including testing the relationship, pressure from one side to move, or using it as a Band-Aid for other problems.
While many cheered on the seemingly practical 21st-century advice, Christian model and public speaker Leah Darrow called out the article with 6 signs of her own, inspired by a nugget of biblical wisdom.
Repeating the same 5 mic-drop-worthy words 6 times, Darrow replied:
“OR here are my 6 signs it’s too soon to move in together:
1. He won’t marry you first.
2. He won’t marry you first.
3. He won’t marry you first.
4. He won’t marry you first.
5. He won’t marry you first.
6. He won’t marry you first.
Not surprisingly, the former America’s Next Top Model contestant’s statement was met with harsh criticism by those calling her perspective dated and suggesting she “get with the times.”
