sidious66 Posted September 16, 2007 Posted September 16, 2007 Hey there all, I've got a story to tell and any advice you can give would be good. I just got out of a 2.5 year relationship (just about a week ago) and there's this girl at work that I really like . I asked her if I could take her out to dinner sometime, and she said yes. I called her up thursday night and we talked for a good hour or so, and as it turns out she just got out of a long-term relationship as well and they were actually married for a year and a half. I realize there are probably all kinds of red flags here, but I still really want to go with this. When we were on the phone she talked most of the time and told me quite a bit about herself, I told her some things about myself too but I think when we talk next she will want to know more about me. The issue is, I actually live with my grandparents (and my mother, we all live in the same house) and from what i've learned about her i think this will be a turn-off, I am planning to move out in a couple months though. This may sound like a dumb question but is there a good way of telling someone you live with your parents? She is gone to niagara falls this weekend with her sister so I couldn't take her out, I'm pretty sure she'll be back in town tonight (sunday) so should i call her up tonight or just wait until i see her at work tomorrow? I don't want to seem too desperate.
ToadKing Posted September 16, 2007 Posted September 16, 2007 I might not be the best to give advice because it seems I can't keep my own relationship from going into the ditch but I will give it a shot #1 I don't think because she was married that it is a red flag. I was married for a year and it was one of the cleanest; least baggage-filled relationship break-up I have had. #2 Don't call her tonight unless you said you would call her "Sunday night after your trip". She is going to want to just relax and unwind after her trip. #3 Ok for the big one - why do you live with your family?? If it is because you just needed some help to get stable $wise. Then fine, that is how it goes sometimes and she should understand that (anyone who has been there would and even if she hasn't been there anyone living in the real world would). Now if it is because you are lazy or are some crazy mama's boy; then you will have some explaning to do and may risk that she will be turned off. That said just be honest with her, girls love that!!!! Good Luck!!
