Define Cohabitation. Cohabitation is a phrase used to describe a couple living together who haven't actually gotten married. How do you account for cohabitation increasing? I thing that one of the main reasons for cohabitation increasing is because it is becoming more and more accepted to live together without being married. In the past, if a couple were to live together and not actually get married it was frowned upon, and many people would think …

…they want to confirm with their partner that they will be with them for the rest of their life, always supporting them no matter what, and the marriage will make the couple a lot happier. Marriage is something to be treasured, and made special, not something you make and break when you feel like it. Marriage itself is not out of date, but the people who get married are doing it for the wrong reasons.
