My parents won't let my boyfriend and I sleep together in same room!?

Question

Ok so me and my boyfriend are sleeping over at my parents' house tonight(it is a long story why) since his parents won't even allow us to(they hate both both of us). So we're at my parents' house and now my parents are saying that we can't sleep in the same room. Isn't this so retarded?

We're both 18.

we would get a hotel room but it's too expensive.

Answer 1

It's a respect thing.  They don't want to picture what would and will go on in bed.  You know how you think about (I mean - don't think) about your parents in bed - yeah, same thing for them....but they don't want to feel responsible for allowing you to do that in their home.  You have time to sleep togther - - - plenty.  Go somewhere if you want s*x.  They don't have to know.  The bed is the boring place anyway.  They just expect you to do that in your bed, because your parents probably have boring s*x. (ewww....parents don't have s*x !! just keep telling yourself that)

Answer 2

i like the way they do....

this is their house and the ruler is theirs too....ther allowed u to stay but u want something else

if u r not happy go, go and get a hotel but remember u ask for it

Answer 3

it might be retarded but you should respect their home (and their rules).  its really not a big deal - nice that they are even letting him sleepover.  

Answer 4

well it's their house so you have to go by their rules. Whenever you move out make your parents sleep in different bedrooms and see how they like it :p

Answer 5

Great parents!!!  Your in their house, respect their request.

Answer 6

yeah i feel ya.

once you're 18, i think parents shouldn't be so over concerned

Answer 7

nah, it's not retarded...it's just a respect issue. put yourself in their shoes, you wouldn't want your children [at any age, really] engaging in any possible sexual activity in your house...right? i can see your point of view too...but just give them a break, it still is "their" house lol =)

Answer 8

Your parents are responsible for you even if you're 18, they just want to protect you. Why would they put you and your bf in the same room, that would be like saying '' alright kids go ahead and have s*x''. Besides you're under their roof so i guess you have to go by their rules.

Answer 9

You have 2 choices.  Rent a room and do what you want or sleep separately for one night.  I don't see it being a big deal that you sleep apart for one night.  You don't sound very mature if you can't respect someone else's house rules.  

Answer 10

o get what u mean and they should let u but u are still under their roof so u have to listen to her but i know how u feel but theres' nothing you can do chick just go along with it till you both figure out what u guys are going to do.

Answer 11

I agree with your parents. Its their house and their rules and when you have your own place, you can do what you want. My son is 18.. my house my rules.. dont like them theres the door and dont let it hit you on the *** on the way out.. If he cant follow my rules.. hes out... He thinks now that hes 18 he can do what ever he wants.. and yes he can, in his own house. I belive your parents feel the same way and I'm sure youve heard them say that many many times..  

Answer 12

It is still their house....i am fifteen and my mom caught me and my boyfriend together in an awkward situation and she wont even let me see ANY guys.(we have since broken up) so just count your luck...even tho you are 18...........................if you had my mom i promise you probably STILL wouldnt have any freedom

Answer 13

I understand why you guys want to sleep in the same room..but it's their house=their rules. sorry end of story. but at least try to convince them to allow him to at least sleep on the couch. a basement? that's not a very nice way to treat your guest.

Answer 14

Sarah, the house is your folks and so they have ever right to make the sleeping arrangements.  Sad that you didn't discuss this prior to him staying the night but in reality you were probably aware of how they were going to react anyway.  As far as you saying that your folks hate you both I believe you are exaggerating a bit on this one.  Just because you are both 18 doesn't give you the right to sleep with whomever you please at their house.  As for getting a hotel room, that sounds like the perfect compromise to this old fella, regardless of cost.  Best of luck.

Answer 15

Respect your parents and their wishes. My dad wouldn't let me and mine sleep in the same HOUSE! When i was 19! He made him stay at my grandma's house when we came to visit. Move out already, you're legal now.

Answer 16

So he sleeps in the basement you both should be very glad that he has a place to get some sleep out of the streets and you got some good parents to let him stay under the same roof  

Answer 17

See as how you are 18 that does seem a bit retarded...from the sounds of it you and your boyfriend already live together..But I understand where they are comming from especially if you have younger siblings in the house, also it might make your parents feel comfortable with you guys in seperate rooms in their house. Just deal with it for now. Im sure once you get married they wouldnt care.

Answer 18

dude im 15 and i understand why..

but yeah from ur point of view it totally sucks

and u want them to trust you

but theres only one thing on ur parents mind and you know what it is

thats why

like you said ur 18 and well ...thats the age that most teen girls get preggo these days

sorry

but yeah i kkno you think its totally unfair

im sorry

lovelovelove

Answer 19

its their house and you need to respect their choice.  Even if you disagree with their decision...if it bothers you that bad then you need to find somewhere else to stay.

Answer 20

h**l, no it's not retarded. Parents are not in the habit of running brothels for horny teens. Since you're 18 and obviously full of yourselves, you're old enough to do the very thing you decided was too expensive to do: Get a hotel room. Look, you're grown, so your parents can't regulate your s*x life, but they're not obligated to facilitate it, either. Welcome to adulthood.
