Do you think people should live with each other before marriage and do you have kids?

What do you think Jesus thinks of fornication, putting yourself in the occasion of sin and cohabitation? Please use ONLY Bible verse to prove your answer.
Marriage is tough. That is no secret. But if you believe that you have to “try out” a person and walk away if it doesn’t suit you — what does that do for anyone? It makes no demands.
If you marry without having lived together beforehand, you WILL come up against obstances. You WILL have a few regrets ...but what it does is demand that the BEST of us rise up and become better people as a result over overcoming all that. It requires patience, forgiveness, humility ...it forges people into stronger versions of themselves.
Walking away doesn’t demand any of that. You remain mired in your own selfish little world, insisting that the next candidate meets your “requirements.” People who want perfection will be sorely disappointed in marriage. They might as well just give up trying.
