Mrp.

So my mom says that until Trevor makes it obvious that he wants to move in with me, I should get the idea out of my head. Sneh.

I'd start charging him rent.

Look, in all seriousness, I once got rushed into moving with an ex. If I had stood up to her and waited, I think things would have been much better because I resented what I perceived to be her rush.

How long have you guys been dating? Has he lived with someone before?

Meanwhile, enjoy having all the closet space to yourself.

You could always just ask him and see what he says. He may be waiting for *you* to make it obvious!

Has she met Trevor? I can't imagine anyone being more laidback about this sort of thing.

Moose Elaine said, (37 days ago)

I've brought it up, and I got a "maybe" out of it. I know better than to push it, but it's been on my mind a lot lately.

Moose Elaine said, (37 days ago)

We've been dating for almost a year and a half. He lived with his last serious girlfriend for around five years. Which was several years ago.

jambery said, (37 days ago)

Then I would have to agree with your mom ... since you made it clear that you're okay with it, the ball's in his court now.

Sucks.

Moose Elaine said, (37 days ago)

Oh lord, Sarah, I'd never have him move into my current place (though he is there at least four nights a week). He could only move in if he could reduce his belongings to one drawer. Which I wouldn't ask him to do.

Moose Elaine said, (37 days ago)

RJ, of course she's met Trevor. EVERYONE's met my mom. Because my mom is awesome.

Moose Elaine said, (37 days ago)

Yup, jammy. Gonna have to sit back and cool my heels, I suppose.
Also, I AM TOTALLY JEALOUS OF YOUR SWEATSHIRT.

retro.joe said, (37 days ago)

It was rhetorical.

I haven't met your mom. I guess I'm nobody.

Moose Elaine said, (37 days ago)

Wait, seriously? She was at my last house re-warming. Strange.

lay oale said, (37 days ago)

I met your mom.

I sort of agree with her here. He should come around and say "Yay! A Party with the Moose, everyday!"

I think getting the idea out of your head is a little extreme...you don't need to go that far. But yes, you've made your feelings clear; now it's up to him.

(You can tell him that a certain unbiased third party suggests he smarten up, though.)

-j. said, (37 days ago)

Also I have not met your mom.

Moose Elaine said, (37 days ago)

Well, -j, if you actually SHOWED UP at one of my parties, you would have met her. Feh.

-j. said, (37 days ago)

OH SNAP.

ABoyNamedArt said, (37 days ago)

Yeah, I'm in J's boat on this one. Or would canoe be more appropriate?

nomi oh my said, (37 days ago)

Don't sweat it, lady. Really, maybe your mom used that phrase because she knows you, and knows how worrying about it will affect you. You know he's not going anywhere, so why rush.

Moose Elaine said, (37 days ago)

Well, writing it down/saying it to people always helps me move on from an obsessive thought. So I suppose that's what this is for!

makeliketova said, (37 days ago)

yeah -j. even i've met her mum. and she IS awesome.

jambery said, (37 days ago)

I haven't met your mom! Which makes me feel better about saying my sweatshirt is awesome and you don't have one!!

It's hard not to rush when you're really really happy and excited for the next step. I'm pretty much dealing with the same thing right now, although K's lease isn't up until May, so I've got awhile to chill out and be patient.

extemporaneous said, (36 days ago)

And I too have met Mace's mom, and I rarely come out of my cave to meet anyone. So there.

Moose Elaine said, (36 days ago)

I should start a Mace's Mom fan club.

Moose Elaine said, (36 days ago)

Also, I thought I made this Team Only, but I guess I didn't. Shit.

-j. said, (36 days ago)

@Moose: everyone, team or no, should have a chance to be a part of your Mom's fan club.

Also, <3.
