TL:DR - wanting to prepare for large relationship milestone the right way.

TYIA for reading. My partner and I are coming up on one year and are very happy together. We recently have began discussing moving in together. While we are happy and excited about the idea, we both want to ensure we do this in the right way. We figure we should spend the next year preparing / educating ourselves while making sure we do this correctly.

Context: I have a prior relationship of 4 years where we moved in together way too soon. We did a mix of on and off LDR then living with each other, then long distance again. She was also filthy, and we started too young. These things really killed the relationship.

My partner has never been in a relationship longer than a year, and has never considered living with someone before.

We have had disagreements and been able to resolve them without fighting, we have similar living habits and standards, and we both agree on the area and style of apartment we want.

Can anyone recommend books or worksheets to do together to help us properly prepare and consider different situations we may put ourselves in?

Hello. Is anyone driving to Anchorage arriving before 1pm on July 13th? Wanting to split gas as a thank you. Quiet and will most likely have my headphone in listening to an audio book the entire time. Can also do the driving if you’re comfortable!
