- Over every piece of sensible advice, you agree, when guy's lease comes up that he needs to move in with you "temporarily."
- Guy talks to exes all the time, even though you tell him you don't like it.
- You fix this situation in the only way he will understand -- by pretending to have your exes interested in you.
- Guy wants kids.
- You don't want kids.
- Guy pushes for kids during 4 months of his "temporary" stay.
- You get dog instead.
- You hate animals.
- You choose one of the neediest, energetic dog breeds in the world.
Shall we extrapolate from this what happens next?
- Guy convinces you that two girls and one guy, under the same roof, is the perfectly balanced relationship?
- Guy starts a pyramid scheme and gets you to join after the 10th round?
- Guy jumps off bridge, you follow?
What the fuck has happened to your mind, woman?

I totally see where you are coming from, but to clarify:
Rehab Boy is a different guy from the current BF, who has been sober more than 3 years. That said, current BF was a CRACK addict. Super classy.
No one forced me to go to rehab. I said "no, no, no." I started going to AA because I was becoming a total drunk and cokehead and did not want to die like my little sister. But I had been getting wasted after my AA meetings for about four months before current BF called me on it and I have been sober ever since. It was our first date. We have been dating, and I have been sober, four months and five days. We have been living together since May 31.
It doesn't bother me that he talks to his exes. Hell, I talk to mine all the time. What bothers me is his random and inappropriate mentions of them. And though I did act out the scenario above I made it clear I was kidding but wanted to get my point accross, and I did.
Re my mind? I have no idea. I was better off when I was a drunk!
