Living with an ex-boyfriend is a lot to take. Trust her or not she should not want to put him in such an uncomfortable situation.

 
turn it round the other way.

If Guy #1 was going away over summer, would girlfriend be happy if he shared an apartment AND worked with an ex-girlfriend? I think not.

If I was Guy #1 I would have the sense enough not to even suggest this to my GF if I cared about her feelings at all.
 
Well you can't MAKE her do anything, so I voted "Break up with her."

Rooming with another guy is shady and I'd be uncomfortable with it, but I might be willing to deal with depending on how well I know and trust the guy.

If she already has a history with the guy? FUGGEDABOUTIT?

Sh!tcan the idea of her rooming with her ex-BF; that's a no go and she should know better. Here's a suggestion, why don't you try to help her find a place where she's going that she can room with another girl or two. That takes care of the economics and offers appropriate companionship in a strange city; it also shows her that you're there to support her and help her by doing this with her.

Edit: She probably finds the idea of rooming with her ex-BF to be completely innocent, a naive outlook true, but above all it's convenient resolution to her problem of lving in a strange city. You need to get involved and help her find a better solution, not just suggest she do something else. You need to act, not just speak.

I'm surprised at myself that I hadn't even thought of that; I must be getting old.

To those that say it's just time to move on, you're probably right but I've known some girls who are really that naive to think that it would be a good idea and are completely innocent in intentions. Face it, from an innocent perspective, it is a very convenient thing to do. She's just not thinking things through and that's why I'd suggest that if it really is innocent, to take a more pro-active course and help her fix her situation. But ultimately, that's up to reitz to decide because he would know her best and what her possible motivations are to even think something like that. If the relationship is not rock solid, then it is time to move on.

 
One word:

hellthefsckNO

But dude, you don't have "to move on" if you can't talk her out of it. It's serious but not a "deal-breaker" imo.

I would talk to her at length, however, and let her know that you are extremely uncomfortable with the situation.

Ask her how she would feel were the roles reversed...uh, I highly doubt she wouldn't mind...eh?

Either way, good luck.
 
So she's going to work with and live with an ex-boyfriend in a strange city?

They're going to see each other 24/7 for months?

They'll be knocking boots within two weeks.
