First let me say: rubecube, isn't this the girl that you where suppose to break up with in the summer?
Just read most of this thread, some really good discussion going on regarding an issue that I've been thinking about often as of late. To address the original question, I'll go with the majority and say that if it's his house, his rules, I would respect them. I have two little sisters who I am very close with and if they came and stayed at my place (when/if I have one of my own) with there boyfriends I would request that they don't sleep in the same bed. This summer when I went to visit my sister in Victoria her boyfriend was there and she made him sleep on the couch while I was staying with her, he understood and I respected him for that.
In regards to the issue of marriage I, like rubecube come from a divorced family that had a very rough break up. I know one of my younger sisters shares rubecube's views on marriage, outdated, unnecessary, and has told our family openly that she will never get married or have children. I'm fine with it, so are the rest of my siblings and father, my mom, who was raised Mormon is disappointed but after her divorce from my father I think she understands why.
My own personal views on marriage are rather skeptical, however I'm not outright opposed. If I meet the right person than certainly I would consider getting married to them, however I would never do it because "we just should" or "we've been together so long so why not?".
