Her Boyfriend Wants Them To Move Into His Parents’ House, Pay Off Their Mortgage, And Help Them Retire, But She Couldn’t Be More Uncomfortable With The Idea
This 29-year-old woman and her boyfriend, 28, progressed their relationship quickly. A year after they started dating, she moved out of the state she was living in to live with him. Her boyfriend had just accepted a new job in a new state, and she wanted to support him.
Their relationship has been going smoothly, and they adore the city and state they moved to together.
This past June, she gave birth to their son. Even though their relationship has moved fast, they were thrilled to enter parenthood.
They live in an apartment now, but after their son was born, they’ve been toying with the idea of moving closer to their families.
She was under the impression that they were on the same wavelength about trying to search for a home of their own.
However, today, her boyfriend suggested they could move into his parents’ house at the end of the year.
His mother is unemployed, and his father works a later shift from the afternoon into the night. His brother still lives with their parents.
“I told him how I would be uncomfortable living there and never having any privacy, and especially because his family has no boundaries,” she said.
During this conversation, her boyfriend explained that he wanted them to live with his parents and help them pay off the mortgage on their house.

He also mentioned that they could pay his parents’ bills to help his parents save money to eventually move back to Mexico, their home country.
“They have no savings, and he wants to give our savings to them to create a home in their homeland,” she explained.
It bothered her that her boyfriend suggested they give all their savings to help his family instead of using the money toward their home and family.
She reiterated to him that she was uneasy about this plan, adding that they had enough money to live in their own house.
“He says I’m selfish and I need to get out of my comfort zone and move in with them,” she shared.
In her view, it doesn’t make sense for them to go forward with this plan because they aren’t financially struggling. She wondered if he was right since he got so angry with her.
