She is pregnant with your child, you're not going to have time to figure out a living arrangement once the baby is born plus the child should be brought home to a stable environment with both of you there.

What are you doing, 'we're waiting til the baby is born to figure out living arrangements'?? No, you have a baby coming, you need to figure out where tf y'all gonna live before it gets here.

    Font - hoginlly 22 hr. ago I'm currently pregnant, and have been dealing with severe nausea and getting sick throughout the whole pregnancy. This is such a clear YTA- 4 days a week is an insane amount of time to expect someone to change their lifestyle, even having a partner over that often by itself is a strain on a shared household 443 Share

The baby's here & we have no time or funds to house search sooooo, GF and baby are moving in here now. Y'know. Temporarily." And then OP (edit: roommate) will be expected to help out/subsidise in some fashion, even if it's just unfairly eating a rise in utilities, or finding everything in the apartment re-oriented to the needs of the baby 6.4k Share
