I am never going to live with a BF again, I learned my lesson the hard way. My boss lived with a woman for like 11 years, she had a daughter and know he is enjoying screwing her over by refusing to give her money and stuff. And because they were common-law it will be harder for her to win in court.
I have been living with my bf and tried to move out last month but was unable to find a place to live that would allow me to keep my dog, so i am stuck here for a couple more months. I am glad it has worked out so well for you, but please ask yourself why you guys are not married, wrong time? not enough money? my opinion is if the person is not marriage-material do not live with them.
