    To move or not to move? Need advice

    My dad and step mom offered my wife and I to move in with them and all we would have to pay for is our own groceries. The point would be to be able to save up some money. My dilemma is we have been our own for 4 yrs now. Our relationship with them is beyond great. But my fear is having to be under someone else's roof, not bein able to have company whenever, not much privacy, therefore causing tension between my wife and I after awhile or even between my parents and I. I know it's smart and would be great to save money but right now I live where I can now hunt off my porch, walk outside and urinate like a man, have a party whenever, my friends live maybe a 100 yds away from me, and i can let my dog roam a lil bit. AT my dads it's in a subdivision in Helotes where none of that is possible. I would even have to have my mom take care of my dog while living there because it's a rent house and no pets are allowed. So is sacrificing all that worth being able to save some money for a couple months?

      My vote is to stay at your own house. Things would look a lot different 6 months after moving in.

          I personally couldnt do it, unless they had like a garage apartment or something.

                  Genesis 2:24. Emphasis on the word "leave".

                    My wife and I did the same thing and it did not work out. I ended up leaving because I couldnt stand all of the rules and it took away from me and wifes privacy. It's hard to have those arguments or work things out when things are going bad. Don't do it.....

                      No way I could do it. After hearing your current position, I couldn't move into a subdivision. Also I would feel awkward moving back in after they have kicked me out once.

                          Negative! You have already listed several reasons you shouldn't do it. I really don't think you need us to make your decision.

                          right now I live where I can now hunt off my porch, walk outside and urinate like a man, have a party whenever, my friends live maybe a 100 yds away from me, and i can let my dog roam a lil bit.

                              IMO, you will be robbing both of you of the experience of making it on your own. Being young and married is about finding out what your made of and what your spouse is made of.
                              You are supposed to have those times of struggle, it builds your relationship and your own self worth. Never trade those experiences for money. Trust me, if you put in the hard work you will be able to look back on your life and your marriage with a sense of pride, making your own way and paying your own way.
                              There was a time my wife could go grocery shopping and spend 30 bucks and we would eat fine for a week, there was times when I didn't know how I was gonna make ends meet but they always did.
                              If you have made it for 4 years you will be able to do fine on your own.
