PithyWorld Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 I need some help from LS. My girlfriend is going apartment shopping, and she is probably going to be out of her parents house in a month. I'm disturbed by the areas she is looking. She wants to move to the inner city, because it's cheap and closer to work. Unfortunately that cheap price is going to come at a cost; her safety. She is going to be living alone without a roomate, she is a 5'0, Asian girl in the middle of the most sketchy neighborhood in the city. Unfortunately I have a negative history with that neighborhood. Two guys pulled my cousin into an ally as she was going to the car, they raped her over, and over, and they were about to slit her throat afterwards. Luckily one of them decided that they didn't want to commit murder, and allowed her to get away. My brothers wife also got raped in this very same neighborhood. I expressed to her my concerns to her tonight, and she just seemed to ignore them. Her response was "I appreciate your concerns", nothing else, nothing more. She is totally ignoring my concerns, which might I add are valid. To make things worse the area where she is moving is riddled with sexual preditors and convicts. I'm worried for her safety, and she won't listen.
jerbear Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 If she discounts your concerns, there is not much you can do about it. Have you two discussed moving in with each other?
phineas Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 If she discounts your concerns, there is not much you can do about it. Have you two discussed moving in with each other? I've actually dated women who used this as a ploy to get me to ask them to move in together.

phineas Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 Did it work!?:laugh: Not the first one. I was in college & had a sweet apartment like set-up at my parents house. Wasn't going to pass that up. She wound up not moving out of her parents house. HMMMMMM LOL! 2nd one i'd been dating for a yr & half & yeah it worked. I married her. Then divorced her. I'm not falling for that again.
