I think she's just extremely na?ve. There's other telling behavior.

You're na?ve if you don't run for the border on this one right now. Drop everything and just run.

Tell her things are moving too fast, deal with the brief fallout and cut all ties. This one is full of crazy.

She just called me and asked me to move in with her. She's not getting along with her current roommate and has been looking for a new place, but she called me just now and asked me if I wanted to go half on a place with her. I politely declined, but... we've known each other for only seven days. I'm worried about this girl.

Relationships like this only end in disaster. They are like suns. The brighter they are, the faster they flame out. You basically spent an entire week attached at the hip to her and now she wants you to move in? Get the fuck away, man. She isn't na?ve, she's going to be a clingy, overly obsessed girlfriend.

If you move in with her my prediction is she pulls the goalie as soon as things start to flame out and then you have a baby Kriptini on the way.

Is this her?

Mario Speedwagon · Feb 28, 2016

You should move with in with her bro, I can't see any way this doesn't work out. Keep us updated :^)

Noodleface · Feb 28, 2016

Onoes would move in. So keep that in mind.

Tarrant · Feb 28, 2016

At first I thought you were reading too much into it...but after the movie in thing, yeah, get out.

Gavinmad · Feb 28, 2016

I'd move in too. Women that particular brand of crazy are the most fun in the world and I'd have the time of my life right up until she cut my face off so she could wear it around like a mask.

You're a weird dude Hoss. You talk about sexually assaulting women being their catnip and your wife falling in love with you because you forced your dick in her mouth when you told her to shut up and she wouldn't. Then you turn around and talk about making sure a woman knows not being a complete slob makes her a true diamond in the rough and scold a man to tell his woman how much he appreciates the fact that she can sometimes be a normal human being and complete a mundane task if pushed enough.

When did I talk about sexually assaulting women being their catnip? Other than the couple of chicks I knew who actually had rape fantasy fetishes, that doesn't sound like something I'd talk about.

RIP me. I know you guys are right, I just didn't want to have to face it.

Yeah, the "lets move in" thing after a week is so much very worse than the "I love you" after a week.

But what you really need to do is fuck her one last time and break up with her while you're cumming.

Oh god baby... squeeze it.. oh yes... it's... WE NEED TO START SEEING OTHER PEOPLE.

Jesus Christ dude that's fucked up.

I didn't mean IN HALF, dude!

Get your head outta the gutter!

Would you say this is normal?

Sounds like a plan.

You guys... the dude goes out with this girl who just moved alone (right?) like 30 times in one week and then you're calling HER a clinger.

Krip, one or the both of you took this way too fast. You 'swept her off her feet' and did everything with her when she was expecting to be miserable and alone. It's most likely not going to work out but no need to be an asshole or an idiot, just tell her like it is and if she bails you knew it was going to happen anyway, if she slows down and agrees maybe she's reasonable and you can figure it out from there.

Not sure where the bold part came from? She moved around here recently (as in, within six months) to go to a nearby college, and there's been animosity between her and her roommate the whole time but didn't really feel that push to look for another place until now.

Yeah, definitely gonna take Iannis's (non-troll) advice and talk to her about how she's probably more infatuated than anything. But I really don't think she's crazy, just really naive, so it's likely she doesn't totally understand what she's feeling.

Palum · Feb 29, 2016

Ah. You made it sound like she got into town last week and you chatted her up at a coffee shop then went out a ton. Was it you who instigated or did she constantly ask you to do things?

I pushed the first date pretty hard, after that it was mostly her. We did go out a ton, though, that part is correct.

I'll share my anecdotal story on the flip side of the coin of keeping house. This past year I closed my business and began working from home working on managing investments and commercial properties that I own. I make a decent living doing this, but it had changed things rather dramatically on the homefront. My wife views it as "retirement" and I now handle most of the kid issues, shopping, cleaning, laundry, cooking etc. Which I don't really mind and normally just take care of things when the market is closed, but it has given me a new perspective on household chores/duties. My wife has several times referred to only one of us "working" and it stings, I do my best to keep on top of things but I can see how being the one at home can make a partner feel like they have to prove their value while the other rarely worries about if they are "contributing" enough.

When I was earning a lot of money over the past almost two decades I don't think I gave much thought to whether I was earning my keep. I do think it's interesting from the biological/evolutionary standpoint, I'm not sure what degree these behaviors are ingrained in our chemistry for men to be more comfortable "providing" versus "maintaining/nurturing" or if it's poorly cultural. It hasn't been even a year yet but I feel like a fish out of water in this role, and to a degree I now feel trapped because I can tell my wife is enjoying not having to do a whole list of things and wouldn't want it to go back the other way.

So how was it before your business closing? If she was working and doing all those duties before it seems like she got the crappy end of the deal, unless you were working longer hours than her.

Kriptini · Feb 29, 2016

This poor girl. She's not taking it well at all. I said that I'm not sure I should be looking for a long-term relationship right now because I have to stabilize my career and finances. Was that the wrong move?

EDIT: I think I messed this up big time, bros. She said I'm one of her anxieties now (she has pretty bad anxiety). She was getting kind of dramatic as well. Really hoping it passes but I feel like a jerk.

Alex · Feb 29, 2016

She doesn't sound very stable. Depending on how you brought it up you probably shouldn't feel like a dick. There are girls I've been "dating" off and on for a year plus - and one I've even gone on vacation with - and a conversation like that would very likely end it.

And this shit's been going on a week? Seriously dude.

Kriptini · Feb 29, 2016

Well I'm not really interested in dating someone that I have no interest in being with long-term.
