Hey Kevin , what are you doing here ? Don't you usually spend Tuesday nights at home studying ?   I needed to get out of the house . My parents just went ballistic over something my older sister told them .   What did she tell them ? Is she dropping out of college ?   Nothing that serious . She finally told them that she moved out of the dormitory a few months ago and has been living with her boyfriend .   And your parents took it badly ?   That's putting it mildly . My father started shouting at my sister and my mother just glared at her .   Ouch , that sounds bad . What did your sister do ?   She started arguing back to my dad that how much she loves her boyfriend , how they're in love and it's not hurting anybody , and so on . My dad said she's too young to do this , and that she should move out right away .   How long has your sister been with her boyfriend ?   Three years . They've been dating since freshman year . They're even talking about marriage .   Really ? Then I guess living together would be a good idea .   What do you mean ?   Well , these days too many people are getting divorced . If they live together , then at least they're finding out if they're really compatible or not .
