Easy to say because I have it….

don't forget-

1) does she like cats?
2) will she smile and coo when cats clap?
3) Will she root for ferrets learning to sign?

I thought you live in IL? That may be why he only went out with her twice if she lives in GA. Not sure if I read right- though seems like she is attending school right now.

Go with your heart- but don't forget to consult your brain. Leave the other member out of the equation- that fella will want only one thing usually lol.

I don't have experience so can't tell you, but seems to me if she truly does care and you care about her- if there comes a time that you (or her) don't have a roof over your head- both of you would find a way to get around that. It's a true test of a relationship.

Does she assume she will be A) paying a fair rent or B) getting to stay for free?

so,.....hence Never assume,,,,,

i still can't do that, its the hardest thing for me to do, is to never assume....bloody freaking hard...but it's real
 
Old tired saying... assume. Electric work is not the place for assumptions.

You assumed it was not energized? Let me tell you what assume spells...

Making an ASS out of U and ME

Women are like electricity.

You are a good man Derek you will make the right decision for you. The cheerleaders are good people too but the consequences are all yours :wave:
The problem is if she does not have a safety net it is hard to give her the boot. The other thing is some states have laws that can really be horrible. I have heard of guys having restraining orders put on them and being turned out of their own house while the girlfriend brings in Studly Do-wrong to plow the field in your own bed. Then have to continue paying the bills while supporting themselves outside of their own home. Takes about a year to get things straight again. Lawyer fees too.

And if the woman get pregnant it will be very hard to give the boot, if she is on any kind of public assistance you can for just about forget about trying to get to move out . I would not rent to anyone on welfare when I was renting out an apartment . If they did not pay their rent I would of had a very hard time getting rid of them. There a lot of things to consider .
 
She does know how to fend off dangerous biting cats. She used to have 6 cats, but doesn't want to teach cats to clap.

We both agree that we won't get ferrets.

She gets ssdi/ssi. She does pay her fair share of rent at her current residence. She said she'll help me with bikes sometimes so hopefully, that would improve my bike sales.
 
You'll have to trust your guts feeling on this and if she does move in with you
I hope it works out for you.
 
I don't think you will be able to find the answer you are looking for anywhere. Really, nobody knows what will happen tomorrow. We all know from yesterday, learn mistake from yesterday, apply that lesson for tomorrow, that is *IF* one is smart enough to learn from.

I don't want to make my post the longest you all ever seen. I made mistakes in the past with women, some of them took advantage of me back then, some have hurt me, especially the one right before my wife, but I learn a lot from that woman and do have regrets and wish that (Whatever the BS was) never happened. What I am saying is, don't make big decision now, especially when it comes to moving to Texas. Moving to Texas just because that woman you know from Georgia that are going to move there isn't good idea. Visiting, maybe but you do have advantage by how she react when she relocate to Texas. If she can't handle the changes though moving or complaining of issues that are no different than when she was in Georgia, then you will know, and could have avoided catastrophic mistakes.

Go with flow, man!
 
if you both agree on ferrets issues that seems ok but one of you may change mind about ferrets and get hurt
