Moving in with the other half is a big deal no matter when it happens. Let’s face it, we all remember that arguing settling in period.

As well as learning to compromise, both sides also learn new things about their partners.

Two threads on Reddit are asking the sexes to reveal the most surprising things they learned about their significant others when they started living together.

We picked out a few of the best answers below…

“Why the massive bucket of loose change???” (lostatsea93)
