desia Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 What's the longest you've ever lived with someone after you've broken up? My bf and I broke up, but I can't move out for a while. It's extremely awkward, and I'm not sure how to act around him. It's sort of like we didn't break up but we certainly did. It's clear we have no future and we acknowledged that. He also knows I can't just up and move right out and he is being positive about this fact. It might be a month or so before I can leave. This situation is so disappointing. I've never lived with a guy before. This is a first for me. I'm pretty saddened about it all. We didn't get engaged before moving in together like I'd told him for 2.5 years when he'd ask me to move in. Against my better judgement, I moved in with him in the fall. Things went down hill in a matter of months. Heh, maybe I should have moved in with him 2 years ago! :/ Anyway wht's done is done. Has anyone here been in a situation like mine before? Still living with bf after breakup? I feel lost.
ShatteredReality Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 I have a coworker in the same situation. She moved from a different state to be with him after he proposed. Well a few months into the relationship everything fell apart and for the last six months they've been living together as roommates b/c she had to get established in a whole new city. She couldn't move home, she couldn't move out...it's been miserable for her...she's planning to move out next month. Her name never got put on the lease, so I told her if he does like he keeps saying and moves out to "stick her with the place" that neither of them can afford on their own then she's going to stop paying, save up and wait for an eviction notice, once that's served she'll move out. She can't use them as a reference anyhow, and if he does that then it's his credit being risked, not hers, and that's a foolish move to make...anyhow, like I said...it's been like 6 months for her - get out ASAP b/c things do not get better!!
wmrjw82 Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 I moved in with my ex this past December. I have 12 month old baby and she set up this great nursery for him and everything in the spare room. Around New Year's she started getting distant. Wanting "space"... told her we would stay at my folks for a few days to give her that space. About 3 days later (and the day after my birthday) she dumped me over facebook. I eventually found it she was interested in another guy. I didn't want to put myself or my baby in that awkward situation one minute more. I never slept another night in that house. Luckily, my folks only live 45 mins away from where she lived and I was able to just get all my stuff out little by little. Took me 2 weeks to get all my stuff out. This Sunday marks 1 month since I moved out and 1 month of NC.
