Talking Selfish???

Hi All! I am brand new to the forum but have been looking for something like this for a while. Glad I stopped in

I have been dating a man for a year now and he is absolutely wonderful. In the beginning he said he didnt want to rush into anything because he has been in a couple of bad relationships (marriages) and I totally understand. Now, a year later we are completely in love and spend the majority of our time together and even talk about marriage. He has told me that he doesnt think we will have to date for 2 years before we get married (so this is a good thing). I have my own house, bills and all the good stuff that goes along with it. But like I mentioned earlier, we spend the majority of our time together and it is always at his house, which is 45 minutes away from my house We have voiced before that we will not "live" together until we are married because we both have children, and we feel like we need to teach them right from wrong and morally, this is wrong. I want to marry him so badly, and I am very able to wait, but I guess I just dont want to have to pay bills on a house that isnt used. Does this sound selfish?

It's common sence not to want to pay a bill on something that isn't being used but you guys don't have a choice in the matter right?

I see where you are coming from but it's seems kind of silly to complain about something that can't be changed.

You are doing the right thing as far as the kids are concerned so (like I said to myself years ago.......) you are doing this for the kids......not for yourself now just stop feeling like this and let's get on with it. As soon as I did that?......the days passed like water under the bridge!

When you do the right thing I find that LIFE has a way of rewarding you!
