| Would you date someone still living with their Ex?

I have to admit it was an unusually situation. But I can honestly say I never had troubles with the situation when I was dating. I was always very upfront about it and explained why, and the men I dated seemed ok with it. Perhaps it's because I never hid it from anyone.
I am now happily engaged to someone I dated while I lived with my ex. | |

Reguardless of why you broke up, you trusted each other. Get past the hurt and remember where you started.
Hopefully, you both work, and can afford a "nice" two bedroom with a patio and some 'space" foe each of you.
You all ready know the friends, family and business associates.
NEVER judge. You may just find yourself moving in with your "X"
The ecomony sucks! | |

Figure it out yet??
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The ex is familiar territory. You will be judged by the ex and you will NEVER know what is good or bad about the ex from the point of view of the one you are dating/intending to date. Getting into a situation like that would be like walking blindfolded through a live minefield. | |

Posted: 7/25/2009 3:44:51 PM | Pretty old topic, but sadly, still relevant!
I dated one of these briefly. I didn't know his roommate was his ex, of course, or I would've said "no" right out of the gate...
Yeah, don't do it.
Most of the time, they are probably perfectly nice people, and they probably think they really do want a relationship with you, but they're just not finished with each other. People who are ready to move on, do.
And financial circumstances be damned, that is a terrible excuse - you've gotta be a pretty miserable jerk before some friend or family member won't take you in. And in that case, who'd want to date you anyway? | |

Posted: 7/25/2009 3:57:27 PM | | No...notta...never... met someone & once I found out didn't go out again. Of course they try to tell you that its over.. you are the one they are looking for & not sleeping in the same bed, but too much baggage. They have alot to deal with. | |

Very fast,....very far.... Don't look back. She's full of baloney, you're thinking with the wrong head, and not only does she KNOW it, she's counting on it.
Run! | |

Posted: 7/25/2009 7:20:09 PM | I won't even waste the time with someone who lives with their ex... did that before (the woman never bothered to tell me that her ex was living with her... she thought that it wasn't any of my business.)
Funny thing is that she got jealous and possessive when I saw other women, though. Hmmm... | |

Posted: 7/25/2009 7:48:07 PM | My SO goes back to see his kids each weekend 3 out of 4 weekends a month and I have no problem with it. He sleeps on the pull-out in the lounge. He spends the weekends cooking, cleaning and shopping because she does none of the above (she has a bad back, but the doctors say she really should get off her botty and move!! lol). Anyway- I admire him for doing it- he works 400 k's away from them so at least he gets to spend time with them. I realise this isn't quite the same as living 24/7 with an ex, but it has some of the same elements.
We have been together 18 months and do plan on moving in together when my kids finish schol this year. | |

Posted: 7/25/2009 8:27:05 PM | I just met someone who asked me out, and while having coffee, first date, he informed me he had just moved back into the house his ex owns, she got it in the divorce, because of financial reasons, they have two sons and it was to save money.
After I learned this "minor detail" I told him I couldn't go out with him until his living situation changes. I said i didn't want to get in the middle of something and I wasn't quite sure what was going on .He was disappointed and accepted just being friends until then. He assured me it was strictly an arrangement for the benefit of the kids and there was nothing going on between him and his ex, he seemed pretty sincere but still I made it clear I wouldn't go out with him anymore.
Next day I'm outside my office, he works in the same building, he came by to say hi, I was about to get in my car and his ex shows, starts screaming at him, "the kids are waiting for you and I see why you are not home yet, is this why you begged me to come back home and give us a second chance? just so you could date other women and save money?"
I was mortified, to say the least. He proceeded to walk away and left me there with the screaming ex who calmed down, after a while and told me they were intimate the night before and he still sleeps in the same bedroom as her etc.
He still had the nerve to call me later that day to say "don't believe anything she says, we are not together anymore she just wants to spoil this for me etc."
It's crazy the amount of BS that is out there. This guy looked into my eyes and said he was not lying about anything etc.
Thank God for paying attention to the red flags, still I was briefly a guest into the Jerry springer show, thanks to him.
Live and learn.
