Poll: How soon is too soon
Ok, so I met this couple this weekend. One person I had met before, the other was knew to me. We'll call them person A and person B.
Person B has two kids, under the age of 14. They seem a nice couple, and are talking about how person A has put her house on the market, and they have just put in an offer on a new house.
Person A will be moving to Person B's town, since they don't want to take the kids out of the school they are used to.
So hearing all this I figure, ok these folks have been together a while, right?
We are outside chatting after dinner, and I ask them how long they have been together.
March, they inform me.
MARCH? Ok, maybe I am crazy but I don't think that you can even begin to know if a relationship will work 2 months into it. You haven't even had a chance for the lust to wear off.
I am also thinking, you want to take a chance like this with your own lives, go for it, but with two young kids?
Personally, I cannot imagine even considering moving in with someone until at least a year has passed. Oh sure we might discuss it a bit about the 6 month mark or so, but to actually move in?
If I had kids, I would be very very hesitant about moving them in with someone else.
What do you folks think? How soon is too soon, with or without kids?
