Reply #45: I have not lived with my parents

[hfojvt]

for two decades now, but I have a sister who is only an hour away.

November to July does not sound like a huge wait to me, but I also feel that if meeting the parents was a condition, that a guy would make it possible somehow, even if they were in Afghanistan. Meeting an ex-wife would certainly count too.

I am still enough of a traditionalist though, to cringe when someone calls an SO a BF or a GF. Especially if they are co-habitating and/or have kids. I am old, and old-fashioned.
