Their exes drove them up the wall \u2014 and out the door.<\/p>\n
Women\u2019s horror stories of moving in with their boyfriends were featured in a recent study, which concluded that three in five Americans say cohabitation doomed their relationships.<\/p>\n
Amy relocated to Forest Hills, Queens, from Georgia to live with her significant other, but quickly realized romance was out the window.<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought we\u2019d get our own apartment, explore the city and start our lives together. What I didn\u2019t realize was that I was actually moving in with his parents in Queens,\u201d Amy said in the study compiled by SharkNinja<\/a>.<\/p>\n A recent study concluded that three in five Americans say cohabitation doomed their relationships.

He was incredibly lazy, and everyone secretly called him \u2018Dirty Dan\u2019 behind our backs,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n \u201cBetween him being a grown man who still acted like a child and me being so far from home, the relationship ultimately didn\u2019t work out.\u201d<\/p>\n Amy did strike up an unlikely friendship with her other roommate: his mother.<\/p>\n \u201cThe weirdest part is that I actually became incredibly close with his mom. We even got matching tattoos. My current husband, who is very much not Dan, absolutely hates that I have a matching tattoo with my ex-boyfriend\u2019s<\/a> mother,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
