My gf wouldn't put us in that sort of situation, so I dont have that problem. I'd trust her yes, but I wouldn't expect her to be happy with it I did the same. Avoidable situation for both of you.
Engineer? There's fewer women engineers than men. Of course, I'm just assuming she's living with people from school. I'm going to generalize here, but I know girls who can't stand hanging around girls for the reason that they can't stand the drama and BS that comes with hanging around girls. Of course, some just like to be the only girl in the group for attention.
Either way, this thread made me think of an old Joe Rogan bit:
Of course, this is ex-boyfriends. But it similarly applies, because you know at least one of them is waiting for you to screw up and pick up the scraps.

‘golden repair’, is the Japanese art of repairing pottery with gold or silver lacquer. The aesthetic philosophy focuses on imperfections rather than attempting to disguise them, with the intention that the piece becomes both more valuable and more beautiful because of its history and for having been broken.
I for one wouldn't like it one bit. Then again i wouldn't bother with a long distance relationship... Or a relationship to begin with lol.
Aye mate
Depends on the girl and the guys, your relationship, who you are, etc - a lot of variables. But as rich posted in the first reply - it all comes down to trust. Ultimately if you trust her, keep doing it and don't let anyone convince you otherwise (unless its a primary source saying "something happened" obviously).
If you don't trust her - then you're either possibly right on some level and she isn't trustworthy - or your not ready for that kind of relationship because the trust requirement is too high: in which case you will stress yourself out more than its probably worth to maintain it (not the girls fault).
I've had girlfriends who lived with guys and I had no problem at all with it - and then I've also had a girlfriend who cheated on me with her roommates on many occasions it turns out. So - on the one hand - yes I still have a bit of a trust issue under similar circumstances as you are in, despite it being over 10 years ago now. For the most part though, for every other relationship I've been in - I haven't been worried.
It really comes down to the quality of your relationship, and being honest with yourself when you get signs to the contrary (I wasn't being honest with myself, and it hurt me in the end because of it - but the signs had been there all along - I was ignoring them).
So, I bring that up because - with a post like this I can't be sure who I'm talking to. Are you posting this because you feel conflicted, because on some level you see obvious signs and are ignoring them because you have feelings for her - or quite to the contrary - did a friend/colleague say to you "I wouldn't trust my girlfriend in that situation" - and you just felt you needed a sounding board to see if you were unusual for not worrying?
Trust your instinct, and try to be objective with yourself - and if you trust her - then definitely don't worry about it
LoL at 90% of the responses here. You can spot instantly the people with next to no experience in relationships or shared living.
Seriously, unless she's a slut or living in dorms partying every night you have got less chance of her fucking a flat mate than a stranger in a club. It's just awkward for everyone.
Also - Don't ask an online gaming forum for relationship advice, you would get a more logical answer from /b/.
Well I can't do that poll, but were it a boyfriend in a place with a bunch of women. Umm... Yeah, I might not be too fond of it though prob really depends on the situation. If it was largely a bunch of people who didn't have much to do with each other and it had been this way for a long time I prob wouldn't be too worried. None of the women better have any ideas of stepping across that boundary though. If they need the lid of a jar loosened, fine, but that's it.
Your relationship wont be lasting much longer if ur gf is comfortable living with 4 random guys. And its a long distance relationship rofl. Anyone saying they're OK with this clearly has no real life relationship experience. Best to move on now while its less painful sorry to say
would she be ok if you were living with 5 very attractive women?
