I have two kids, girlfriend has three. We moved in with each other five years ago. My kids are 22 and 21, her kids are 18, 13, and 12. The value of the house is around $300K. I’ve invested well over $120K into the house since moving in.

Two years ago, my kids moved out within weeks of each other. One went to college, one went to the military. They both live around 2 hours away. Both have significant others and my son is getting married in June.

Our home is five bedrooms. Two large bedrooms with bathrooms, then a large, medium, and small room in the basement.

When my daughter left for college, her oldest took the biggest room upstairs, and the medium room downstairs. My kids don’t visit often, or both at the same time, as they have no place to sleep. Now that her oldest is leaving for college, she wants to still have both of my kids to share the smallest room. There’s only one twin bed in the room. After my son is married, she wants both of them to continue sharing the smallest room with a twin bed.

I’m not allowed to put a bigger bed in the small room because the bed in there now is from her brother who passed away. I’m not allowed to disassemble it and store it. It has to be assembled in that room. (It was never her brothers room, just his bed frame)

I only wanted to have the medium size room in the basement to put in queen bed. I’m not allowed to do that either. She refuses to put her kid who will be going away to college in the smallest room because *maybe* he will be home in the summer. There is plenty of room in there for one person, and it was actually her oldest son’s room for years.

So long story short, her kids will have the three largest rooms to themselves, even though one will bea way at college. When my kids visit, they will be sharing a twin bed in the smallest room in the house, meaning one will have to sleep on the floor, the other maybe on the couch?
