You could end up confusing your child. But as long as everybody is on the same page, I wouldn't worry too much. And yes, rules are good, especially with regard to overnight guests. I would say if you are going to overnight with a date, it needs to be off the premises and no discussion about what happened. Sometimes people do make better friends than partners. Good Luck.

I don't understand how you could even consider this. I assume that your not planning on dating anyone during the time that your EX is at your house. There was a reason for the divorce to begin with.
On the flip side maybe the 2 of you could find what was missing in your relationship.
I think over all that this could be potentially ugly

This can be VERY confusing for your son. He will have unrealistic expectations that you two are going to get back together (or that you already are). It is ok (and good) to have a positive relationship with your ex for the sake of the kid, but you shouldn't be living under the same roof (unless you really are thinking about getting back together)>

Is ok you know what you want and and you've made this kind of boardering arrangement but don't deprive the child of the dad. Your ex might be a stranger to you but he might not be to your child. Love is letting the others decide what they want.

Even though it makes sense financially, it might confuse your child into thinking the 2 of you are getting back together.

You are asking for trouble. I suggest setting the one month as a definitive time for him to find a place and you to find a new border.

It's your home and you should make the rules.
