Would You Let Your SO Have Roommates of the Opposite Sex?
Recently my friends were talking about living off campus, possibly with guys. This brought me back to an earlier memory. I remember when my SO was entering sophomore year two years ago and asked what I would think if he got an apartment with two other girls. Call me conservative, but I remember flipping a shit. I knew he wasn't attracted at all to either of these girls, the idea of him sharing a bathroom and getting to know each other in a private setting king of peeved me off. Would you ever let your SO live with friends of the opposite sex? Would you ever live with a friend of the opposite sex?

It's tough. I would love to say that I am completely secure in my relationship and that having girl roomies wouldn't bother me--but I would be lying.
It made me nervous considering a guy roommate at my last apartment (and my boyfriend was already living with me). I just didn't want the temptation around; the new roommate could be home when my boyfriend was at work, and I just didn't need that added stress.
However, it's not about "letting" your SO do anything. You are not in charge of him. I would just let him know I was uneasy about the living arrangements and would prefer if he didn't live with females. The choice is up to him, though.

I think it would make me queasy, but trust (even if you're faking it) is key. Gotta at least pretend to trust him.... and keep a close eye on these so-called roommates! haha

Screw that. Nope.
I don't trust girls, not one bit. I trust my boyfriend, not girls though.
Let me state this once again. Screw that. Lol.

I wouldn't be comfortable with it, and I think that while you'd want him to know that you do trust him, you'd also want him to take into account your feelings and the possibility that you may not trust the roomies. Would he be fine with you living with some guys? Would he trust the guys to share the same living space as you? I'd say the more frequent answer's gonna be no, and there shouldn't be any double standards in a relationship.

NOPE!!! Doesn't even matter if he's not attracted to them. I just would NOT be comfortable with that...and same for a reverse situation. If I'm in a relatioship I wouldn't live with the opposite sex. Forget thaaat.
