So here’s the story. I've been dating the same girl for about two years. I transferred colleges to Columbus and needed a place to stay, and her brother offered me a place to stay. The first thing he said to me about the rules there were, "Come and go as you please, do whatever-just don't break anything." With this being said, about two weeks ago I had two guy friends and a friend who happened to be a girl from high school down to my place to drink. We all are underage, but didn't drive anywhere, get incredibly carried away with drinking or anything completely irresponsible-we just had a few drinks.
The next week my girl friend's brother called me on it and said nothing more than, as long as we don't drive or anything like that, its fine.
Then this past weekend, he told my girlfriends parents about it and made it sound as if there was some wild sex orgy and drunken ridiculousness going on in the basement, where I stay, which is not at all what happened. I'm obviously mad because I now feel like he is going to tell my girlfriends parents about every little thing I do. Also, my girlfriend is non-stop complaining about my mother, what little drinking I do, who I hang out with and yadda, yadda...
So what should I do? I've already thought about it extensively and spoken with several of my better friends about the issue-I just want to see what an unbiased third party would tell me to do.

ElenaHilton answered Monday March 5 2007, 4:53 pm: You live with him, so he's going to find out everything you do. Talk to your roommate about the ground rules for living together (his weren't very good), his betrayal of your trust and how he needs to tell YOU(not his parents) how he really feels. As for your girlfriend, it sounds like it isn't working out because she doesn't approve of you. So maybe you should make other living arrangements and talk to or break-up with your girlfriend. She may not realize her nagging bothers you, but if she gets angry I would break-up because she obviously doesn't approve of your actions and choices.
Sounds like a bad situation, hope this helped. [ ElenaHilton's advice column | Ask ElenaHilton A Question ]
