What do you think if I sign another year lease on an apartment my girlfriend hates?
Why do you want to renew your lease? Do you have a reason?
Yes, I'm thinking of making her stay at my place.
Your partner's input on where to live is important. You shouldn't manipulate your partner to staying with you. It creates a toxic and dishonest relationship.
Well, I want to make sure she doesn't leave. Being alone sucks.
Your egotistical attitude towards your girlfriend will destroy your relationship in the long run. You have to make big decisions together. If you love her and want your relationship to thrive over time, you should reconsider your approach.
