My husband and I shared a room while visiting my grandparents while we were still dating. They never even mentioned or suggested we do otherwise, so I never brought it up. We were dating long distance though, so they knew we shared a room all the time anyways.

Way to cut and paste and take my words out of context. I started out by saying
If my parents, or hers, wanted to be childish and ask us to not stay in the same room together, even though we were both adults who lived together in our own home, then we would respect their decision and not stay at their house.
It's not like we are having sex in their house. I'm never done that while staying at either parents' home.

I still lived with my parents when I was allowed to sleep in same room with my gf. I was a junior in high school

I lived with my grandmother for a while during college. My girl would come over sometimes and I would always have her sleep in the guest room.
Then one day, my grandmother tells both of us...
"What is the point of her coming over if she is just going to sleep in the guest room?"
God Bless her.

We always stayed/did the holidays at her parents house because they didn't care. It was my ultra-Catholic parents that made us sleep apart until we got married.

So they are childish for their beliefs but you are not for taking your ball and going home. You are such a big boy.

Actually, standing up for my beliefs, which I believe are correct, and not forcing it down their throat should they object is kind of taking the high road. So yeah, I am such a big boy.

what about simply honoring your parent's rather simple request?
Is this really one of those "stand my ground, got dammit" kind of issues?

My parents never made that request, so I can't answer your hypothetical.
Posted on 9/29/15 at 12:53 pm to AnonymousTiger
...ok. you were theone who started with the hypothetical though.

I only ever had one problem with it. I was 21 and had been dating the same girl for about 3 years. Got invited to go to the beach with family, grandparents etc. But i had to pay my own way. No way in hell was i going to pay for a piece of the rent of the beach house just to sleep on the couch.
Dad and grandpaw were not happy with me.

That is the thing I don't get here. Apparently he has strong moral beliefs that he has to sleep with his girlfriend come hell or high water.

this i understand. i agree with you. if you are paying equal share then you should get a say.

I didn't start the hypothetical, Chryso did when he questioned my respect being a one way street in terms of a situation that I never even said actually happened.
Regardless, I can't speak in terms of my grandparents, but my parents never questioned the situation or had any problem with me and my now wife staying in the same room while staying with them. I suppose they could see how much we loved each other and didn't mind.

My son's girlfriend sleeps over a lot. I have no problem that they are in the same room.

this is you stating your reaction to a something that never happened... you know, a hypothetical situation.

Right, which I said in response to him questioning my respect to a situation that never occurred.

Would that be this situation?

but I see it as them also respecting my decision as an adult and if it came down to them making a fuss about it then we just wouldn't stay over there.
Just wondering.

Their house, their rules.
This isn't complicated.
