When you move in, magically all your time becomes his somehow. ?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!!

Everything he does needs a parade, and though you spent 3 hours on cleaning the kitchen on your day off, the fact that you are painting when he comes home means you fucked up and are lazy and immature.

Please dont end up like me.

This. Of course men would be frothing at the mouth - no ring or deep commitment but they are getting regular sex, split bills, food/cleaning from a partner. Why would they marry or commit financially when they can have it for free?

The greatest change in my life thanks to the FDS handbook: there is no cohabitation with me until I at the very least am engaged and soon planned to marry. I am open about this. It has scared off a great deal of losers with no intention to be a supportive and financially secure partner. :)

People hate to hear this and will rush to post anecdotal evidence to the contrary. Unfortunately those stories keep everyone hooked on hopium. We all believe we will be that exception to the rule.

But very often cohabitation masks the fact that at least one person is not keen on marrying the other and wants to keep their options open, just in case they find someone better. When they do marry each other, it's because of sunk-cost fallacy and not because of any stars in their eyes or butterflies in their stomach.

Eventually they realize that sunk-cost fallacy won't keep you warm and "loved up" at night, so they throw in the towel.

Correlation does not equal causation. There may be all sorts of reasons why people who don’t cohabitate prior to marriage also get divorced less often. Religion is an obvious one.
