Maybe I'm wrong, but the haste is weird.

If we attempt to buy something and she doesn't have the dough, then I'll know she doesn't have a large sum of money.


....after you've signed the contract? Ah, why do I even bother?

Why am I the most cynical person in this thread? What happened to Boo?


You topped me, I am proud of you.

North Adelaide could probably get hotter than South Adelaide.

Yes. Definitely go for it. She might change and so might you but the connection you make wi probably be worth it. If she inspires you to improve yourself and you inspire her to improve herself, it's worth it and who the hell likes sleeping alone for real? You've known each other for a few weeks but you haven't even begun to get to know each other until you try partnering up/living together. If she makes you happy when you're together, the worst thing that can happen is that it doesnt work out. Give it a shot.

Also, try doing a natal chart compatibility test on cafe astrology.

So then, carrying on with the skepticism theme.. could she be motivated by using you for a fast track to citizenship?

Possibly. Is that from one of those shows I haven't watched?

I agree with the general sentiment that while some people do instantly fall in love, as a general rule those who move that fast are usually messed up in the head and proceed with extreme caution.

Another thing to consider is the 'domestic' ramifications. When the cops showed up at my place after my crazy ex's screaming fit, their demeanor completely changed when I explained that crazy did not live in my apartment and was just visiting. It's almost like they completely relaxed and reminded us that sound can carry and please be mindful. I found out later that was because it meant they didn't have to worry about hauling one of us (i.e. me) off to the lockup for a few hours especially given I was twice her size. Imagine how embarrassing THAT would have been: I would have probably had to move out of that building!

I swore I would never move in with someone until getting engaged and that's exactly what I did. I just rescued a friend from an abusive relationship and see the hell she is going through because she rushed into moving in and marrying a instable man.

So I told her she can't move in yet. She didn't get mad or anything but she's been acting cold towards me. I worry I've hurt her.

Ask her, rather than worrying about it.

What happened to your other girlfriend?

How many times have you seen her in these 3 weeks? 10? That’s not enough.

I did. She just says in the coldest voice that "everything's fine". I asked her if she still loves me and she said "love is s**t".

I'm worried. She's the best girl I've ever dated and now I might lose her. I'm worried :(

Is this something to be proud of? It's like one of those zen riddles, one-handed clapping :mrgreen:

OP, so you're in the freezer. Can you cope with that dynamic for the next 40 years?
