Hello all,
Briefly all I can say is that my fiancé is not from here (legally born here but lived in another country all her life) and right now her only family here that’s willing to help her are moving away to a far away state and right now it is extremely hard for us to get her her own place. So my question is, in respect of her virginity, our spiritual relationship and of course for Jesus Christ our Lord, and the fact that we do NOT want to offend God, morally would it be ok for her to live in a small home in the backyard of my parents house where I live? She would have her own bed and privacy in there, and we are always together daily, only at night we split up (9:30/10pm) to our houses to sleep. We would NOT be living in the same home, but she would live in the small house outside, just until we get married which if it’s the will of God, soon… Everybody likes the idea, but first we leave it in Gods hands, because we want to will of God completed, not ours.
 
You are in separate houses, it’s fine. How lucky you are that this is a possibility.

Best wishes on your engagement and eventual marriage.

I think it would be fine, provided that it would not be a “near occasion of sin” for you or your fiancee. For that matter, I think it would even be fine for both of you to live in your parents’ house in separate bedrooms – again provided that it is not creating a near occasion of sin, and also providing this arrangement is fine with your parents.

I think the arragement seems fine and would not cause any scandal.

Good luck to you both!
 
Living in the guest cottage until you marry sounds lovely!

Why wouldn’t it be?

And why are you asking strangers on the internet rather than your parents and your pastor?

Maybe his parents aren’t catholic? Maybe he doesn’t feel comfortable approaching his pastor?
Maybe he just wants to see the (name removed by moderator)ut people give?

I don’t see why people feel the need to make the “strangers on the internet” comments when the whole point of the forum is to be a place to ask questions.
 
Sounds good- but, and this is not to be rude- I would make a contract, even If no money is involved. In an engagement, every person should be free to quitt at every point. It would be fair for both of you that if ( and I really don’t wish it for you) there’s a break up she has the security of a certain amount of time for moving out.
