My boyfriend and I are both going to be attending Yale University this fall. I'm so excited because he is the one person that I will know the first day that I'm there. However, he wants to live in the same dorm as me. Is it a good idea?

Think space... you both will need some. Don't you want to meet other people as an individual instead of as a "couple"?

First Congrats on goin to Yale.
Now to answer your question. It really depends....Are you sure you wanna stick around him all the time...i mean you're goin to really change in Uni...i'm not saying that you guys are gonna change emotionally...but the way you even socialize is gonna change....
I wouldn't, if i were you. I'd tell him to go to a further away dorm..(so that it wouldn't be like we're neighbours and kill the romance, and all that crap). Give yourself sometime to adjust to Uni's life, and it's social life..
If you then think that it's best that you guys are closer, then have him move closer, or you can move closer...But not without trying it out the other way first....after all you can always ask him to move closer, but won't be very nice to ask him to move further!
Good luck

Nah, don't live with in the same dorm as him. Make him have to come to you. Do you really want him seeing you ALL the time? What if yall break up you will have to see him ALL the time too!!

I'd say there's no problem with it. You are on different floors, and if you start getting uncomfortable, they have pretty strict rules about visitation in most dorms. Just play the rules.

Before you concern yourself with where you will be staying in relation to eachother... school comes first. You need to focus on you education as in the end regardless if or if not it works out you must take care of yourself at this point in age... and the rest will work out for itself.

Enjoy your college years and learn what you can.. you do not want to look back 20 years from now with an "I should of"

it never fails that the first year of college is for new things and new people. relationships rarely make it through the first year. you want to be able to be with new people and try new things. so if you and your boyfriend break up after a month or so, do you really want to be seeing him every day? possibly with his new girlfriend or endless parade of single women? if you guys make it, great, but across campus is probably the way to go.

You mean same dormitory hall right? I think it is fine, but it would be better if you are on different floors. That way, you can meet different people, but still be in the same building. If you are in different dormitories..that is okay too..that way you don't have to see each other all the time...

I dont think they allow that.
But it's possible they could
I've not been to college yet.
Well congrats on going to Yale.

NO, it's not a good idea. Your going there for an education, not to be with your boyfriend !!!
