Thoughts on Moving in With my Girlfriend...

I'm 26. She's 22. We both have bachelor's degrees and I currently have a "legitimate job" she is looking for said job as she just recently graduated from college. Combined we have maybe 30k in debt but have over 30k saved up in disposable cash. 

youre responsible till you lose 

I just remember that Moonshine line from Inglorious person.

Good luck ad.

 

How much of the debt/savings is hers?

You are going to do it anyway, no matter what anyone says, so...why even ask?  Your mind is made up.  Just remember, you heard it here first.  You are too young.  Wait a few more years.  You won't regret it.  Women CHANGE after you move in with them.  They think they own you and let themselves go a little.  They don't put out as often, because they already have you.  I have had women admit this much to me.  Guys?

"As long as I am responsible with it"

She will soon be unveiling the alien beneath as time goes on.
Good luck to my friend.

I think living together should be mandatory before marriage.

You are doing the right thing.

Thank god I didn't marry the first girl I lived with - I learned everything I needed to know that I wouldn't have otherwise.

GL on your future.  Oh, to be young again and have a student athlete GF.  Enjoy it while you can.

Youth is always wasted on the young.

Sounds like deep down you are skeptical and looking for reassurance. It may work out but I lean on the too young side.

It could be a good life lesson for you (Learning the hard way) but her being 22 is too young to co habitate.

They definitely change once you move in together.

First time I moved in with a gf I was 25 and wish I never did but it was under extremely different circumstances from yours.

My advice stay single or at least keep it casual and wait until at least the mid 30's until you get into a serious relationship. If I could do it all over again thats what I would do.

Above all don't knock her up...

Truer words never spoken

no joke it all depends on how many blowies she dishes out and the quality of said blowies. If this is already a problem you will one day be a salty old man paying asian masseuses to gargle your co.ck once a month

plus most of us do need photos to make the final approval.. 

agree with vanzack.  it's mandatory to live with a person before you get married.  especially at your age.

also, i strongly encourage you to live in a few different cities at your age.  you're young, you can be mobile, see different places, meet different people. 

when you get older, more stable in your job, have kids, etc, it's hard to move around. 


vanzack's lived in equatorial guinea for as long as he can remember.  he went to cameroon once to see the national team play.  don't be like that. 

equatorial guinea is the texas of west africa.  get the f*ck out of there and see some different places while you can.  

Personally I'd ask somebody next door in the stall while I'm sitting on the shittter at an El Compaseno's about women advice before I'd come to Covers.

A relationship isn't real until you live together. Give it a go. 

I'm gonna have to get all Dr. Phil mixed with a little Dionne Warwick and her Psychic Friends Network on ya son.

It's not about degrees, job titles, money or whether or not she can truly be cool about our vices we have including poon which is all our biggest downfall. We will do anything and put up with a ton of BS just to move in with a poon dealer and have your fix anytime cause it's in house......BUT

You will see in time that dealers may appear to be cool with everything at first with hooking you up with primo product to get you hooked. Then the mood swings and paranoia kick in with aggressive actions actions fueled by irrational thinking due to feeling shortchanged.

So now the dealer wants payment before dealing you any more goods. But poon slangers have this imaginary emotional price log you with never be able to catch up and your I.OU.S are no longer good. So not able to get your fix at home so you will want to sample some new product because any dealer seems awesome till you find out how they treat you when they feel you crossed em.
Enjoy it till it blows up and always do what yoy wanna do and if you don't have the guts to walk out the door while she's crying don't leave!!!!! Then you better not move in with her cause you will be in this for life.

Lol catch my drift?

You're 26?  You're still a kid.  Go ahead and act like one.  Don't try be somebody you're not (adult) and do something stupid (get married).  Be yourself (child) and just have fun (get drunk, do some light drugs, have a lotta sex, gamble, etc, etc).  Worry about wearing your big boy pants when you're 40ish.  Good luck to you.

Go for it. If ya think you might have a keeper, throwing her back in hopes of finding a better one is probably not a smart idea. Catch and release is cool for the most part, but when you get one to put on the wall you dont get greedy. Theres lots of fish in the sea, but most of them are bottom feeders or too hard to catch.

Put this one on the stringer and see how living together goes.

 

SPOILER: You will literally want to set this woman on fire several times. You will question yourself and hate life at times. However, this is gonna happen with any women you live with...its not just your lady. If you want to be like the previous guys and be "single and happy" at 40, go for. I personally dont know of anybody like that. The game changes after 30, because you still want the 22 year old girl, but they have now become fairly unattainable....so you spend a lot of time being "happily miserable" all alone. Its a give and take....
