laurie, i really think you should keep your room and the guest should have the couch. you already have a full house, and you as the "lady of the manor" so to speak, need your space also. a couch makes it clear that it's a temp thing and not a permanent relocation. if she's escaping an abusive situation you might want to have ready some social services numbers and groups ready to give her so she can learn to stand on her own feet. local domestic violence shelters/groups can help with self-esteem clases and job leads. you are a sweet soul to help like this, but set clear limits. best wishes,
