Hilchot Nidda with a Girlfriend
Question
I wanted to know if I'm having a intimate relationship with my girlfriend is it better that you go to the Mikva or is the halacha of nidda only for married couples
Answer
Shalom!
Thank you for your question.
The laws of Nidda/family purity/monthly mikva immersion are for married couples only.
It is not permissible to have relations before marriage and hence the issue is irrelevant in your case.
If you believe your girlfriend will make a proper Jewish wife and raise a proper Jewish home then you should marry her.
