What if your new man still lived with his ex?
Changes in the way we define the family structure has meant that for the most part, family is an individual experience, based on one’s peculiar set of circumstances. One man’s family may be another man’s freak show, but as conditions like finances limit mobility, you may find yourself in a family setting that’s less than ideal, but which has to work for you at the moment.
What if the man or woman you liked was still living with their ex for whatever reason, but insists that they’re not sharing a bed? Would you continue to date them?
Earl, 45:
Sometimes life can hand you some hard blows and put you in predicaments that you never saw coming, but I don’t think I could handle one like this. I wouldn’t be sure if this woman was being honest with me.
Ester, 37:
I wouldn’t go any further with this person. They would have to get their life sorted out first.
Adrian, 33:
I wouldn’t trust her, knowing that her ex is still in the house with her. I’m not saying that I wouldn’t believe her that they were over, but what happens on those cold and lonely nights?
Everton, 38:
I couldn’t see myself in that love triangle at all. That sounds like a recipe for confusion and disaster.
Carrie, 29:
No I wouldn’t. That’s just too much.
Asha, 26:
If I’m dating someone I should be able to go to his place at some point in time and there is no way that I would be going into a love nest that was built by him and his ex.
Sherryann, 30:
This would open up too many questions and so I wouldn’t get into anything with him.
Gillian, 25”
It would be a sad situation but one that I wouldn’t entertain on any level because I could tell that if I was to start something with this man it wouldn’t go anywhere.
Linda, 39:
I would tell him that I hope he works out his living conditions soon, and that he should call me when he has.
Blossom, 36:
A man in this type of position really shouldn’t be looking for a relationship because from the jump he is not stable. There is no need to pull anyone else into the drama.
