Engaged and Cohabiting?

[onegreenclover]

So… here’s the deal.

1. Unconfirmed, not religious, Cradle Catholic fiance and Buddhist me get engaged
2. We buy a house together and plan to get married after my grad school.
3. 3.5 years later he gets confirmed and I convert to Catholicism

Now, I know that cohabitation is a nono but what do you do in this case? We’ll be married in two years (since that’s how many I have left of grad school) and have a date set.

What do you think? Please keep in mind/consider that it is extremely hard to live apart since we bought a house.

Hi,

So here’s the deal: nothing is worth living in the state of mortal sin. Get married now. Waiting for a big wedding is not worth living apart from God.
