How do single folks (living with roommates) in San Francisco/NYC areas arrange for their parents’ stay with them, when they are visiting from home countries? Want to have my retired parents come and stay with me in 2022 for 2-3 months and looking for creative ideas to make their stay comfortable. Thank you :)

How about Airbnb a place for 2-3 months and stay with your family? It will be spacious, comfortable and equipped with all the supplies.

I know of friends who have! Well, if you stay with your parents at the Airbnb, you might have to sublet your current room since it’s an added expense. That’s the only thing I can think of right now. Everything else is logistics - consider the Airbnb to be a new rental ..so you would need food/detergent/bathing supplies etc etc. legally you are all fine.

I had the same situation a few years back. For one roommate, I let his parents sleep in his bedroom and let him sleep on sofa in living room. Another time, I let my roommate parents sleep in my room because his room was too small and he let me sleep in his room with him sleeping on couch.

It all depends on how good relationship is among roommates and how much they want to adjust.

Anyone here ever been scared by some major differences in materialism with your partner? I’ve been considered “boujee” by some friends but my girlfriend of just over a year is on a whole other level. Lately because of many of her friends getting engaged / married, rings have been mentioned and she’s said pretty much she wouldnt be happy with under 25k.

I come from a very middle class upbringing, and so does she, although she’s influenced by friends dating professional athletes and stuff

My last therapist keeps coming up in my mind. I left her when I moved to a new area before COVID dug in and frankly it felt like leaving a girlfriend. She also disclosed in the final session that she was a member of AA and knew several of the people I occasionally discussed from the rooms. Her knowledge of the program certainly built trust with me early on, but it has been two years. I discussed it with my current therapist but she’s still in there. Any advice?

The idea is to provide multiple peer perspectives, and hopefully something useful
