That seems really effing weird.
I was not happy about this arrangement and eventually it caused a lot of issues in my new relationship.
Eventually i got a better job and my ex and i topped living together.
The biggest problem is that she didnt tell you upfront.
I was never deceptive about my situation. Either way your situation is raising some questions because if she is telling the truth, she didnt come forward right away and if she is lying, then it is a big one for sure.
I m sorry she disappointed you. If i was to work this out , i would ask when is their arrangement going to end and let her know that withholding such important information is not OK, because if she wants to be with me, then i d better have a choice of whether or not i want to stay with someone who is living with an EX.
One thing i hate the most is living in ignorant bliss, forces upon be by another person. In the perfect world, it is great to be with a person who is just like us, but in reality i would rather be around someone who is honest about their skeletons in the closet (and i will accept it), than be surprised out of nowhere
I would personally break it off due to the lying.
but she did lie,. that is an issue
And, remember....without healthy and upfront communication, there is no relationship; without respect, there is no love; and without trust, there is no reason to continue.
No one can tell another every single aspect of every part of their past and current circumstances. We can probably find some portion of their life, past or current, they neglected to tell us and consider it deception.
However this does seem to be a rather significant omission. The only question is the reason behind the omission and whether or not you trust her and can live with it.
