On the back of Millie's post -
I have chatted to guys who said they live in the same house as an ex partner but current economic situation means they have to live "together"
I also have female friends in this situation.
So would you accept it if your potential date/partner explained it ?

MADDOG69: No. No way.

Not even with her mortgage repayments, credit scores, her business going down the tubes if she walks away and defaults? No "what's the story"? - really?

If it's genuine ok I can understand it and everyone deserves another chance for happyness. If I was in a situation like that I wouldn't continue living with my ex and actively looking for someone. And think it would be a lot of hassle starting something with someone like that. So I wouldn't go there myself.

this suprises me too - cos you're a very astute kind of woman and when you do find that man, he'll be lucky and wouldn't mess it up with anything as ridiculous as what he had and left.

I'd have to ask myself, why would I get myself involved with someone who got themselves so precariously on the edge?

Oh and the other inconvenience: Living with an Ex still? Nah. No way. Too much risk there. Seen that happen... a few too many glasses of wine, little bit of 'for old times sake' sentiment, next thing they're riding.

Clean breaks wasn't the terms I was thinking in - more in the if you're not fooling yourself then no one else can blame you for it - kind of lines. wave

i briefly lived in that sort of situation, it's not healthy, there is no way i would expect anyone to get involved with me if i was in that position, one simple way to solve the debts is one of the two takes them on, i did problem solved

And so a lot of people will remain single while they maintain that existence. Because as you can see, most people would not put up with it. thumbs up

be that as it may , i still wouldnt get involved ! it would only lead to tears in the long run ! i feel sorry for people in this situation , there has to be a way out of it ! one move back in with family / frieds ect ! there has to be a better arrangement , espically when there are kids involved as it would just confuse them more , and living in that kind of enviroment where othe parents are trapped in the same house !
