How do i keep "my stuff"?

[crimsonblue]

Well, my gf's lease runs up at the end of the month, so I told her to just move in with me. She has started bringing some things over.. My question is, how do I keep "my stuff"? Everything is becoming ours, but darn it I don't want to share my xbox nor my laundry detergent. I don't mind sharing the bed, but I draw the line at my pillow. Any suggestions?


Edit: Sorry everyone. I was being snarky. :P We were laughing about it, actually, because I told her, half jokingly, things that were "off limits" and she proceeded to go and play with them. haha. My fiancée is an independent woman and she will do something if she wants to, my dire warnings or not. But that's why I love her... :D

1. Dude, you're going to be a dad. You won't ever have stuff again.

It'll all be the kids. Trust me on this.

:rofl:

2. fuck.

that's not fair.. they're probably going to be breaking my things, too, aren't they?

[Midlodemocrat]

4. Oh, yeah. I couldn't begin to list all the breakage.

But, it's worth it.

6. I suppose...

I mean, yeah I am with the person I love most and having a family, but can that replace my xbox (which i never play :P) when it breaks? I think I'm starting to have my first panic attack-- just thinking about all the expenses we will have for 18+ years.. And I'm scared I won't be a good husband or father...

8. Everyone is scared that they won't be a good parent.

Trust yourself, trust your soon to be wife. It'll be fine.

And, trust me on this, an damaged xbox is nothing compared to what the little shits can do to your car.

:rofl:

10. or your heart

12. No kidding.

It's been a wild ride. Worth every twist and turn.

3. oh sweet precious detergent!

:wtf:

[crimsonblue]

5. I buy special detergent over the nets...

and I don't like it getting used up. but I was being a bit snarky, too.

7. If you're actually concerned about "your stuff"

You may want to reconsider moving in together. Being mature enough to cohabitate generally also means being mature enough not to care about stuff like an Xbox.

9. The only stuff that's 'my stuff' is the stuff my wife doesn't want, and would rather throw away.

Therefor I must apply the label of 'my stuff' to it to prevent its disappearance and reappearance at goodwill.

11. Make a list with replacement costs.

If you can get her to sign off on it, that would be even better.

Is that other poster right? Does she have your loaf in the oven? If so, this is really the least of your problems.

13. Well if she's playing with everything you declare off limits...

I can think of a few things you should immediately declare off limits. :P

[crimsonblue]

16. hmm... good idea...

The only thing she is not allowed to mess with is my computer... nor I with hers. Our computers are our partner-free zones... so needless to say my background pic is a very provocative one of her (she got me back and made hers a picture of brad pitt shirtless... :( )

14. Tú es... ¿cómo se dice?

"Screwn."
