Can you be married without living with each other?

not to confuse you. I don't mean living away from each other for work or other reasons. But as a choice.Can you be married without living with each other?
Yes. I was married to my first Husband and he ';chose'; not to live with me. We were in the military and I had no ';idea'; that he wasn't going to live with me. We were in Germany when we got married and for the first couple of years he made absolutely no attempt to live with me until I filed for legal separation and made it clear that I was going to divorce him. He was doing his own thing and living in NCO quarters and I was living in the barracks. It went on for almost three years until I reenlisted to go to another base and when he got there I applied for housing and he was either forced to live with me or get a divorce. We finally ended up dirvorced...he had another woman.


Peace, Love %26amp; HappinessCan you be married without living with each other?
You would definitely have a lot of space and personal time. lol.





answer: I would not think so. Marriage is a life 'together' not apart. I think having a room to vacate to will be quite enough. Or just the understanding that sometimes one or the other needs to steel away, it's nothing personal- just for one's own mental well-being. If that's established upfront, there should be no qualms with living together.
What would be the point?





Point of marriage is to share your life and everything with it. If your living apart your being selective about joining your lives. Seems to defeat the purpose of marriage to me. Besides if your married legally you share all obligations... what would be the point of having them divided?





Actually it sounds very much like a couple that got married because one got paid and one got a green card.
There is no law stopping you, only you.


So if the other person agrees to it i don't see why not.


But if you don't have any plans of moving in with them in the future, I think it would be a waste of time/money getting married. I would just keep it to dating.
Yes you can. But it would be best to be single since you are living like single people anyway. It would not work out in my opinion. Why would you want to be married but seperated?
this would, I guarantee, be a divorce proof marriage.





not living together would ensure that everyone would be happy.





great idea.
Yes. It happens.


Do an internet search. I can't remember what they call it (married living apart?) but I've read some blogs and articles about it recently.
Why getting married when you wanna leave away from each other by choice. It wont work.
Of course you could but the marriage probably wouldnt work out very long.
It used to be the way it worked, but now the sequence has been changed.
Yes. Some do this. I think MOST people are not well suited for this - but a few are.
That is a choice I would love to make....
Uh ok.
yep





i am in the states





he decided to go to germany





not working out though
