Every summer, my family takes a vacation to our mountain house in upstate New York. We have a dog though who doesn't come along so one or two of us kids stays behind to take care of him for the month that everyone's gone. Last year, I joined my brother for the month, but he recently moved to Florida, leaving me as the only person staying behind. I'm 20, and hoping to finally move out by June (depending on my job though), plus I hate staying at our big home in the middle of nowhere all alone. Our dog is big and used to being able to run around in fields, so it seems cruel to move him into a small apartment with me. My mom suggested having someone stay with me this summer and wait till my family gets home to move out. I'm strongly considering asking my 22-year-old boyfriend of seven months to join me, but there are a few concerns. As of now, we're only seven months into our relationship and I'm not sure I feel comfortable enough to spend a month living with him just yet, especially since we also work together. Also, things are a bit rocky in our relationship, though I'm confident by the summertime things will be much better. Do you think that it's too soon for us to live together, even though it's only for a couple months, or would it be good for us? If I do ask, how should I bring it up to him without making him think that I'm more serious about our relationship than I'm ready to be? — Dog Sitter
