    Yes it is a problem between the couple, but if the mother is guilting the girl into staying there then there is no point trying to leave the mother out of the discussions,

    Well, all I can say is getting the Mother In Law involved in family discussions didn't work for Gordon Ramsay! . Look at what hot water that got him into! Pipsta, this is between the two of you. You seem to have been a very nice meal ticket for your girlfriend so far with all the emotional support you've given her over a long period of time.

    Time for her to realise that the Goodwill Fund is running pretty low now. How much longer are you going to let this business run? Perhaps you should set a mental deadline for yourself and then pull back.

    This thread seems to have gone very quiet for a while. Hopefully Pipsta you and your girlfriend have now managed to resolve your problems. I don't know whether your baby has arrived yet, but hopefully if it has, it has managed to concentrate minds and you've now managed to resolve the issue of where you're all going to live.
