interesting conversation to come

Post Reply New Topic

i'll be having an interesting conversation with my mom in the next little while. i currently live with two guys and a girl, the girl was in a relationship with one of the guys but they broke up in early october. anyways she's looking for a new house with her double partner (they became good friends) and two other girls and they want me to move in with them.

one thing you need to understand is that my mom is a pretty hardcore catholic, she also doesn't really like the idea of guys and girls living together before they're married (regardless of whether or not they're dating). my parents actually got into a big fight about it because there was a house with two girls and a guy that i wanted to move into and she didn't agree with it but my dad didn't see what the problem was. she was fine with me moving into a house with one girl this year but i don't know how she'll feel about me living with 4 of them.

at the moment my roommate and the other girl definitely want to move in, the other two are still a bit up in the air.

My dad is Catholic too and he believes that living with the opposite sex before marriage is really, really hazardous to one's spiritual health. And I agree with him.

your and adult for christ sakes
tell em to take off
its your life
YOURS!! !
got it
spiritual health is stupid
if it really does exist one should have temptation and overcome it-if that's their angle
a little challange never hurt anyone

if it was my money i wouldn't care what they say but they're paying for my housing, which makes it a little more difficult to tell them "screw off, i'm living wherever the hell i want"

yeah, it depends on what my mom thinks. my dad doesn't care but my mom's the one who might have an issue with it.

there is, however, one issue to resolve before i decide whether or not i want to move in with them. i had a bit of a thing with one of the girls, my roommate's rowing partner/friend, but nothing serious came of it because she still had/has feeling for her ex. i won't go into details, it's pretty long story and a complicated situations with her ex, but i'll have to find out what her feelings are toward me. i know she did have feelings for me back in november, but i need to make sure she's over that if i'm going to move in with her.

as for my feelings toward her, well they're hard for some people find them hard to understand. if she was interested in me i'd date her, but i'm also perfectly fine with being friends and i could live with her without anything happening and i'd be fine with that. i did have strong feelings for her but i "put those feelings on hold" i guess because of the issues with her ex. what i mean is that i'm not really feeling strong emotions for her because i understand that this really isn't the time to try to start anything, but if the opportunity arose i could probably dig in there and get those emotions out. i'm not at the point where i could never have feelings for her again, as it is with a lot of the girls i used to like, but i'm past the point of infatuation and i'm able to interact with her as just a friend.

well i've lived with girls my whole life. growing up i had two older sisters and my mom, i then went to a boarding school where i was more or less living with them, they were always around, we ate together, we just slept in different dorms, and i now live with one girl so i don't know how much it would actually help my communication skills. they could, however, at least help my fashion sense, that's one great advantage to living with girls is that they know better than me when it comes to clothes.
