boston.com Love Letters - Too Soon to Move In Together?

Hi Meredith,

I'm a longtime reader, sometime commenter with a question about timing and relationships. I have been dating a woman I met about three months ago, and we have been virtually inseparable since. We pretty much alternate staying at her place and mine.

We made the decision to move in together because despite the short amount of time we have been dating, we are in love with each other. Our friends (and family members) are expressing some fairly serious concerns that we are moving too quickly. If we were twentysomethings I would understand this, but we are both in our 50s and time is more precious as you age.

So my question for you and your readers is: Does it matter how long you have been dating before you move in together? Is it based on time or on how well you think you know each other? We have not had an argument yet, much less a fight, so I see no reason to continue bouncing between two houses (both rentals). The other question I have is that she is moving in with me, so she would be giving up her apartment. This scares me a bit because if things do not work out for whatever reason, she would have to find a new place again. Thanks for any help you can give me.
