Mikael and Megan shared that they decided to live together quite late into their 10-year-relationship. With it came anxieties such as dealing with expenses, doing chores, or finding red flags in one another. And that anxiety of theirs became reality when the honeymoon phase from their live in situation wore off.

One of the biggest issues Mikael and Megan had as a couple who have just moved in together was "Who would do the dishes?"

According to Mikael, "There's a honeymoon phase, right? When you live together, ganadong-ganado kayo, naaaliw pa kayo sa isa't isa, you have fun being together.

"Even washing dishes you're saying 'Yeah, it's so therapeutic, it's so fun washing dishes.'

"But in the long run, eventually after work, you go home, there were times when we called one another out with the dishes.

"You would call me out most of the time but there were times when I would say 'Wait a minute, why is it always me washing the dishes? Why don't you do it?'

"So nagkaroon ng ganoon. I think that was the biggest issue that we had with household chores, it was 'Who was going to do the dishes?'"

Through compromise, helping one another, and constant self-improvement, Mikael and Megan were able to fix the issues they had with one another like a real healthy couple would.

Near the end of their podcast, Mikael and Megan shared a few points couples should consider before making that big move.

"I think one, 'What is your main reason for moving in together?'

"Some people that I know, friends that I have, have moved in with their partner because one, they work at the same workplace. It's just easier for them to get to work together, they're able to spend more time together because at least after work or before work, you know, magkasama na sila.

"Another one would be for budget, let's say your parents were like 'You have to move out of the house.' And it's hard to find a place that's affordable alone especially if you're newly-graduated, you don't have support from your family.

"Having a partner or maybe your boyfriend or girlfriend, or even just a friend 'di ba? Having that extra income to take care of the rent is such a load off. Ang laking bagay na may tumutulong doon sa rent kasi ang bigat 'eh kung ikaw lang," said Megan.
