Me (23 F) and my boyfriend's (27) roommate asked to have his girlfriend move in with us.

My boyfriend and I have been dating for over a year. He had been asking me to move in since four months of dating, but I started moving in in July. I'm still in the process of transferring things over from my parents. My boyfriend's roommate is also one of his best friends and lives primarily in the basement. The home is owned by my boyfriend. I've noticed that the roommate leaves messes and doesn't clean at all. My boyfriend has complained about this, but I happily clean the house.

My boyfriend's roommate has been dating his girlfriend for around 4 months. Over this period, they have had explosive fights...one of which landed him in the ER. They drink frequently and are sometimes up into the morning. The drinking is no problem, but the fights that follow and the mess is not okay. My boyfriend received a text message from his roommate asking if his girlfriend can move in because her current roommate is moving out and otherwise she will have to move back home. He stated that she would be over almost all the time regardless, which didn't sit well with me. My boyfriend said he wasn't entirely comfortable with it and said this is my home too now so I get a say. I said that I don't feel comfortable with it as well. Now, I feel bad.

I feel irritated that his friend would tell him that she is going to be over alot anyway.

How would you handle this?

TL;DR My boyfriend's roommate wants his girlfriend to move in. My boyfriend owns the home. We have told him no, but he said that she will be hanging around here alot anyway. What would you do?

The difference between being right and being understood

My boyfriend and I are 28. We’ve been together for about 1.5 years and recently moved in together. He’s a pretty patient and easygoing person (Type B) whereas I’m more particular (Type A). Of course there are two sides to every trait, and my Type A nature benefits us in some ways too. Like all couples, we have differences in perspective or preference. When this happens, he will usually say something like “I disagree (with your perspective) but fine.” I tend to push the issue in an attempt to get him to understand where I’m coming from. This escalates the disagreement into a fight because he perceives it as me trying to be “right”. I truly just want to be understood (and I want to understand where he’s coming from) so I’m looking for more of a dialogue whereas he avoids conflict and just wants it to be over as quickly as possible. His general approach is “agree to disagree” but that doesn’t make sense to me when it’s an issue that will keep coming up and requires compromise. I’m n...

My (27f) gf (27f) is getting tired of me not sharing intimate/ personal info about me

I’ve always been extremely private and introverted. We have more than a year together and we’ve been living together for like 6 months, we get along pretty good and I’m really in love with her, however I can not seem to open up... and I can tell it’s frustrating to her by the way she tells me it bothers her that she feels she’s the only one committed and the one that’s always sharing... At this point I don’t even know if it is that I’ve gotten too used to it, to the point I’ve became lazy to talk about myself or give any genuine personal opinion... it sucks, really, I need to communicate better... Where do I start? Tl;dr: I can’t be completely intimate with my gf and its frustrating her, I need to communicate better because I really love her... where to start?

My (23M) girlfriend (25F) relationship is confusing to me. I might be the problem, or maybe we are just incompatible.

I met my girlfriend after a few serious breakups that led me to change both intentionally and unintentionally over a few years. For better and for worse. She had just gotten out of an engagement with a verbally and physically abusive man who had a cocaine problem. We have been together about 8 months now. We hit it off and spent a lot of time together but she began to push our relationship as if there were a time clock for milestones. I was pressed beyond my comfort zone and went with it because of my affection for her. My living situation fell apart and I lost a few thousand dollars to shit roommates right around the time she and I met and she offered to let me stay with her. I agreed with some resistance. I pay for food, help her with bills, and throw money toward rent while trying to get back on my feet. As long as we have been together she has gotten more possessive, angry, and irrational. She is dealing with shit from her engagement and I feel shes looking for a level of seriou...
