Imagine dating a guy who still lives with his ex-girlfriend, for, ahem "financial reasons". Now, it’s not that hard to understand that they may have gotten themselves in debt and he can’t afford to move out (and maintain his lifestyle). Trust... is he really over her? But it does make you wonder? is he really over her and ready to move on, or is he holding on to the past and hoping to get back together with him.
New love and previous lovers
New love is wonderful and full of joy, but there’s always that little matter of your new partner’s previous lovers.
We usually file that under "baggage" and hope they’re over those previous relationships, but sometimes those relationships live on in some form. Letting go and moving on

But it does make you wonder… is he really over her and ready to move on, or is he holding on to the past and hoping to get back together with him.
How can you know for sure if he is really over her? Even if he is over her, how can you be sure that he won’t accidentally give in to an urge on a dark and lonely night when he’s alone at home with her? Can you ever know for sure?
It’s a lot easier to slip up and have an "oops" moment with a previous lover, since you’ve already been intimate and you know each other well. All it takes is a little alcohol and a surge of passion, and you’ve got "slippage"!
Trust in a relationship is very important, but if you put yourself in a position to mess up, eventually you will. So do you demand he moves out from his girlfriend’s place, or can you just trust him to be faithful to only you (and to not get any urges on that dark and stormy night after he’s had one too many glasses of wine)?

Here’s the full story…
Dear Dan and Jennifer,
I’ve just started going out with a bloke who classes himself as single but has told me he still lives with his ex girlfriend (if she’s really his ex!). According to him, he still lives with her for financial reasons only, (I guess this means he couldn’t afford a place of his own). He tells me there is no longer a relationship going on between them.
His work mate told me on the quiet that it was genuine what he is telling me, but he agreed himself that it was an odd set up. I can’t bring myself to fully believe his work mate, because if he does know he’s still sleeping with her, he wouldn’t tell me anyway, would he?
Supposing he is telling the truth - how do I know? I don’t want to continue this with the thought that my boyfriend and his work mate are having a laugh behind my back.
