My ad for a roommate started in the paper today...just got a call from a lady and she said that she was married. I was like,you know that I am a man and that would not be a good idea for you and your husband. Just curious if anyone would rent to a married couple?
I just look at it as being very detrimental to the holiness of marriage...When I first got married,we had a male roommate my ex's age(19 at the time) and it created alot of problems...when I tried to kick him out for not paying the rent,she defended him,which really hurt out marriage after that. A friend of mine that recently passed was always making me wonder whether my son was mine or not cause the two of them hit it off so well!?

No, wouldn't recommend that set up, cause even though you may be a gentleman in this situation, the husband, or soon to be ex would still suspect all manners of fun going on in your house. Could prove to cause you more headaches than what the benefit of someone helping with the bills could give you.
i wouldn't reccomend it for anybody...it can cause major problems...and in the end, you could wind up spending more money than what you were trying to save...for instance if they were to steal everything and take off.....it would also be a bad situation if the man was a very jealous man...it could cause real problems....just what i think....
