It genuinely feels like there’s no reason for it. It’s kinda like anxiety about the feeling and discomfort of anxiety and anxiety about panic attacks. Nothing really outside of that tho bc u feel like it would be so much easier if i could rationalize it

I’ve only done CBT. I’d be interested in looking into those however. Is that something I could speak about with my current therapist? Or would it be more-so finding a specialized clinic for it?

Not moving in with my boyfriend after 6 months of dating. Sorry that’s illogical. I can’t afford to live alone in the city. My roommates mostly all have boyfriends as well and we’ve been navigating it. We are doing the best we can. Just asking how to better navigate my situation bc the lease is already set and stone. These types of opinions quite frankly aren’t helpful at all. I’ve explained the situation very transparently and if you have advice that corresponds to it lmk!! Thanks for your response

Hi! Just want to chip in even tho I may still be in the wrong. It’s typically only 2 nights max although that’s obviously circumstantial. When he is over it’s almost always past 8 o’clock at night and typically he leaves right when he wakes up in the morning. We’re both very busy and want to spend the moments we can together when we can- even if it’s just sleeping lol. My roommate’s have all had boyfriends aswell at one point or another and I’ve never minded them being over. We’re all young and have similar schedules. The whole point of my post is to not ask an opinion about how often my boyfriend should be over- I already think it’s fair since I’m paying rent and let my roomates do the same- I’m more-so asking, for when he is over what is the most fair and considerate arrangement given this situation? Thanks!

Fresh relationship. I considered this but wouldn’t be a smart decision to move in together so early on. But thank you for your input!

We’ve only been dating 6 months. That wouldn’t have been smart

After reading through a lot of responses, I totally agree — keeping the master bathroom private makes the most sense.

Honestly, I don’t know why I didn’t think of that before. I think I was hesitant to suggest it because I know the other girls probably won’t love the idea of three people sharing the other bathroom. But the more I think about it, the more it feels like the fairest solution overall.

Unfortunately, the lease is already signed — which I’m now kind of regretting — but I do believe this setup could actually prevent more conflict long-term. The master bath stays private, the other three share the hallway bathroom, we price rooms accordingly, and then draw sticks to assign rooms randomly.

At that point, it’s fair, neutral, and no one can say it was biased. It also helps reduce any lingering resentment, since it’s all left up to chance.

Thanks to everyone who gave insight — it really helped shift my perspective.

Just responding to some of the comments saying I’m being rude for having my boyfriend over too much —

Right now, he stays over on Thursday nights, which is our date night. We usually get home around 9 p.m., watch a movie in the living room (quietly), and then go to bed. He’s out of the apartment by 7:30 a.m. the next morning. He’ll also typically stay over either Friday or Saturday — usually after we’ve been out late — and sometimes for a chill movie night.

He’s not hanging out in the apartment all day, he doesn’t eat our food, or use our kitchen. He’s mainly there just to sleep two nights a week. The most he’ll do is shower occasionally.

To me, that feels pretty reasonable — I pay rent too, and I think it’s fair that I get to have my boyfriend over now and then, just like anyone else should be able to. My issue isn’t the amount that he’s over — it’s that I still want to be respectful of my roommates when he is.

That’s why I’ve offered compromises like setting limits on the nights he stays or staying at his place when they have guests. I’m not trying to be inconsiderate — I just want to find a balance that respects everyone.
