Is she moving in with her boyfriend, or has his family offered her a room in their house to stay? Because the later doesn’t necessarily mean they are living in sin, even if the boyfriend is in the same house.One of my (supposedly good Catholic) friends just got engaged, and I wanted to throw her an engagement party, but she told me today that she will be moving in with her boyfriend and his family for the next few years until she graduates college. Suddenly, I’m not so sure if celebrating is the right way to treat this; any thoughts?
I don’t know, but she’s admitted that they have sex when she goes over to his house and his parents are gone. Even if she’s not living in his room, his parents won’t be there all the time.Is she moving in with her boyfriend, or has his family offered her a room in their house to stay?

Well then the issue is premarital sex, not “living in sin”. Because where she is living is moot, she’s already revealed that to you. When did she reveal to you that they are engaging in premarital sex? Was it at the same time as her telling you she was moving in with her boyfriend’s family or have you known about it for awhile and if you have, what made the living arrangements seem more significant?I don’t know, but she’s admitted that they have sex when she goes over to his house and his parents are gone.

No, she revealed both to me today; after she told me she was moving in with her boyfriend’s family, I told her to be careful not to be tempted, and she basically said that it wouldn’t be an issue, they’d already done it multiple times.When did she reveal to you that they are engaging in premarital sex?
