No, but if you become involved, you're screwed.

+1. If it fails, be prepared to move unless you can prove you have the moral high ground.

Depends on the amount of separation between you and that person (i.e. do you live in the same building, but separate apartments, or does your dorm have a suite-like arrangement where you all have separate rooms, etc.).

But generally, I'd just say it will lead to awkwardness, drama, etc. So... no.

Bad idea.

not a problem, unless the two of you arent able to handle your relationship like adults after wards, if it does fall apart or end.

I got involved with someone in my apartment complex. It turned out pretty good. We've been married for 14 years now and have a beautiful 7-year old girl.

No! Normally it wouldn't be a problem. In your case you will probably bore the person of interest TO DEATH with your questions

Being intimate at your apartment seems like a good idea to me.

it's all good so long as you're realtively certain that both parties have checked their BS baggage at the door.

I carry as much BS as I can, and then ask the chick to hold it for me while I get drunk. It's the best way to handle it and costs less on storage.

Just ask yourself if she's worth the trouble. If yes, then go for it. If not, then let it go.

If it is the same dorm/apartment, yes. If it is the same building, no.

Don't ask that question around here. There is a whole movement of Leykis 101 wannabes around here who yell out the "hit it and quit it" line every chance they get to any guy that mentions anything about a woman.

If it goes down the creek things will probably be awkward for a while. But you only live once!

Ha! You are funny...

I am unsure about the answer to this question. But I guess it would probably be fine as long as it wasn't a really bad breakup.
