Wow, that's a brave thought. Speaking from the woman's point of view, I can't help but wonder what will happen when the new girlfriend shows up(unless you're giving up on other girls in your life). Women deal on an underground level. They have ways of really getting nasty without a man ever realizing what is going on. So maybe the question would be: What do we think about the chances of a new girlfriend surviving this one? My answer is fat chance! Here's the flip side....how cozy will it be when she brings someone else to her/your home?

I think you're really brave for even considering it. I've never been the person to be friends with my exes, let alone live with them. It seems to me like you would have to tiptoe around all the time, making sure you didn't touch them and they didn't catch you in your towel, and so on. Also, I agree that it could be really awkward and terrible if either of you started dating someone else. What if you brought a new girlfriend home and your ex was really mean to her, or tried to claim you, as exes sometimes will? It could ruin whatever you had started. I don't think this is ever a good idea.

I think its rather risky to be honest, because there was a reason it ended and a reason you guys weren't supposed to be together. You're pushing it a bit fine if you then live with them. The tension could be rather high in the house and it could leave to unnecessary arguments. I sure as hell wouldn't live with an ex of mine.
