Okay, I live in an apartment with my boyfriend of 3 yrs and he's quite a bit older than I am (no im not some little kid, im 21) and my mom likes him now but my dad never really liked the fact that I was seeing him. I dont see my dad hardly ever bc he is a truck driver and is gone all the time. My parents are divorced by the way. He is remarried and him and his new wife are on the road in the truck all the time. They have a nice house not too far from our apartment, brand new but they are gone on the road so much that they arent living there and cant keep it up. My dad is currently trying to refinance the house and he said if they wont let him refinance hes going to just get rid of it. Its a nice home!! He just called me and asked me if me and my boyfriend would be interested in moving in there rent free all we have to do is pay utilities and cut the grass. He said he would even let us use his furniture if we took care of it. I just think this is so weird! What do you think??

To add, he said it would be for like a year or so and then if we decide to stay we can work that out.

well sounds like a good deal... but depending on where you live and how hard it is to find housing I would be REAL sure your dad is for real, cause if he ups and decides at the spur ofthe moment that you gotta go, and youve already given up your apt. you could be i deep doo doo.

I think your dad is trying to save the house and his credit. I would go for it, but I would like you to know that it is much more expensive to live in the house and take care of all bills than live in apartment and only pay rent and may be electric bill. If you and your boyfriend want to try to save money for your own place I would not suggest you to move into your dad's house.
But if you are OK with paying all the expenses of the mortgage and utilities, then go for it. My husband and I enjoy "playing" our house very much.
Good luck.

It doesn't sound that weird to me. He doesn't live there and you are his daughter. So if you were to live in his house, his problem with the house would be solved and you would have a nice house to live in. Maybe he's come to terms with the fact that you live with an older man and he just wants you to have a nice house. And also, if things were to turn out bad with you and your boyfriend, your boyfriend would be the one who would have to find another house to live in, since it's your dad's house. Maybe your dad is trying to watch out for his daughter.

Hey, if your dad's not using the house, you like it and don't want him to lose it then by all means move in! IF he really won't take money from you for the mortgage, take the opportunity to put your money away so you and your b/f can put the money down on your own home...

i think that is so sweet of him he really does care about you he is just gone all the time. you shouldnt be all freaked out if he does something nice...he does love you you know!
maybe it just took him awhile to get used to the idea that his little girl is dating a older man and that they might get married and that he might be his step-son.
think of it in his shoes it helps.

Sounds ok to me. Maybe he just wants it occupied and safe with someone he can trust. He probably doesn't want to get rid of it yet.
It's a great deal if I say so.

sounds like daddy is looking out for his little girl, and looking for someone to keep an eye out for his house while he is away.....this is a great chance for the boyfriend to prove himself to your father.....GO FOR IT!!!!!
