-- Posted by shyriluv at 5:17 am on Dec. 1, 2008 Me and my boyfriend plan on getting a place of our own before the year is over. I've been with him since April and we've been getting along great. We had actually lived together before for a week and a half after his brother lost the apartment the they were leasing together. Im 18, he's 21. I have a job and have been taking care of myself starting in high school. Im also in college. Its not like Im some spoiled breat. I rented a room for 3 monthes. Im wonder about "living with him" Does is seem like something I shouldnt do? My motther said Im trying to grow up too fast. But my thing is that I already have been taking care of myself for so long...I may as well have a place where no one nags me ect..... -- Posted by x FENRIS x at 5:20 am on Dec. 1, 2008 Good for you getting set-up! -- Posted by evilteen at 5:21 am on Dec. 1, 2008 I say be careful this is something that could make or break the relationship I assume that both of you guys have the matruity level to be able to not bicker and fight over little things like why the dishes aren't done and shit like that cuz that's usually where problems start but all in all make sure you know what your getting yourself into -- Posted by Hoop Jargon at 5:28 am on Dec. 1, 2008 Doesn't sound like a bad idea. It's practical but also a big step, but you sound mature enough to take it :-)   -- Posted by theAnomie at 5:29 am on Dec. 1, 2008 Everyone says it, and as all my uni friends have told me, you don't know someone until you live with them. Consequentially it's ruptured a lot of friendships. Other than that, no reason why you shouldn't. -- Posted by HideOrSeek at 5:48 am on Dec. 1, 2008 How come you are in High School AND College? -- Posted by iswat at 5:50 am on Dec. 1, 2008 that sounds fun to live with a bf but don't you think you move too fast ? :/ -- Posted by Ftkatyowser at 5:57 am on Dec. 1, 2008 You sound mature enough, but this is something that can make or break a relationship.  If you feel that you are ready to take that step, then go for it =)  My friend from high school moved in with her boyfriend right after graduation and things have worked out great for them. -- Posted by Chiefette at 6:53 am on Dec. 1, 2008 It is a big step, and if you are not ready for it, it will blow up in your face.  I would wait until you are very secure in the relationship, and are sure that you can make it on your own first. -- Posted by zigily at 8:59 am on Dec. 1, 2008 I wouldn't live with someone after knowing them for such a small amount of time. I know you think he's the best thing since sliced bread at the moment but things could change. People normally don't start to show their crazziness until about 18 months. I'd wait till then and if it's still going great move in.
