What Do You Wish You'd Known Before You Moved In With Your Significant Other?
Nowadays, it often seems that it's almost part of the norm for couples to move in together — whether they are engaged or just dating for awhile.

Anytime I think about couples moving in together, I think of that early "Sex and the City" episode where Steve wanted to move in with Miranda.

In the scene when Steve brings up the topic of them living together, Miranda has a mini freak out thinking about giving up her alone time as well as revealing sides of herself that she had kept private up until that point.

Her feelings were valid IMO!
And you know, there is something to say about all of the things Miranda was feeling because that episode was relatable AF. I don't even have a boyfriend who is asking to move in with me but I imagine I'd feel similarly to her if I was in that position.
