It is suggested that people cohabit for three reasons: (1) some would marry but do not for eco-nomic reasons, (2) others seek a more egalitarian relationship, and (3) others use it as a trial period to assess whether to marry. Sharing resources is not a reason for cohabitation because food stamps and budget management are not always shared when people live together. Resources may not be able to be received by multiple individuals.
