Q: Ok..been dating this guy for going on 3 months. We've spent every weekend together except 2. We grew up together.

A: Yes. In fact, that's quite the leap. Not saying that it isn't possible, but to assume that its definitively the case is ...

Q: Do you think it's best for a man to live on his own (or w/ friends) at least once before moving in w/ his GF so as not to go straight from mom to GF? That is what my long-term BF and I always planned on, but now it's shaping up to be that he might go right from parents' house to a place w/ me; not sure if that's smart.

A: Not always. Depends how smart his parents are. If he is used to being expected to do stuff round the house, can handle l...
