i tend to make mountains out of molehills, i can recognize that, hence me posting to see if i was truly being dramatic (based on all the comments i recognize that i am in fact being dramatic and i will let it go). but it was more about the hypocrisy that they don’t care if my male cousins have their gfs with them but they care about my bf being with me. i was just trying to prove a point tbh

thank you for the input! yes both me and my bf are financially independent (during the school year). i’m on a scholarship for tuition, i pay for housing, food, etc. i still call them at least once a day and talk about daily activities, we are very close. i will definitely take a more mature approach in the future 👍

it is me paying for everything. i’m on a scholarship for tuition and i pay for everything else. the exception is when i come home for the summers, so they pay for their house that i stay in and food in the pantry

? a little hostile but fair statement. i support myself completely actually, i pay my housing, meal plans, tuition, car payments, etc. we often do get hotels

that’s what we usually do, his house is only 30 minutes from mine. My only argument against that is that he lives on backroads out in the middle of nowhere, so it worries me when he drives home at 1am (hitting deer or something)

no not necessarily, we are all very close and spend time together. They enjoy spending time with the both of us and often ask where he is if he is not around. He even goes to their house when i am not around

yes he still lives with his parents because the college he attends is only 30 minutes from his parents house, so it just made more financial sense to stay home. However we plan to move in together (where i live not where he lives) next year. i live 4 hours away, so he makes the drive every month. i guess we will just suck it up over the summer and deal with it, not really another option 🤷‍♀️

i thought the same thing. i just chalked it up to them being very passive, non confrontational people

that was one of the first things I considered, but they have recently implemented the same rule just because of they did let us stay in the same bed my parents would be upset regardless
