How to have my boyfriend on the lease without my dad knowing?

.: How to have my boyfriend on the lease without my dad knowing?
So I currently live alone, but in August when my lease is up I’m planning on moving in with my boyfriend. Problem is, my dad is really against living together before marriage. He might have to be on the lease because I don’t have enough credit. How can my boyfriend be on the lease too without my dad knowing? I don’t want to lose my dad because of this.

If your dad is a co-singer, it is IMPOSSIBLE for him to not know. Your BF’s name and signature will be on the same pages that your dad has to sign.

Answer by Bren
Your dad shouldn’t even be able 2 find out.

Answer by R P
Your father will know because he will be signing the lease.

Answer by Use Your Noodle
You can’t
If you still need your fathers help in renting a place, he is going to find out that loverboy is living there and on the lease too.

If you want to play house with the boyfriend, it is time to grow up and stand on your own two feet and get the place on your own merit (and boyfriends too). Using your dad this way is wrong.

Hey guys / ladies.. the bigger issue is not the rent but the family issue.

You need to decide which is more important…your dad’s wishes and respect or living with your boyfriend. You did not give your age or any background but your closing comment seems to indicate a family value that you take seriously.

Before you violate the trust and expectations of your father you need to simply sit down with him and tell him. He’s a grown guy and he will understand a few things.. most important you both have to realize that in order to hold on to something more important you often have to let go of something that you can not hold on to anyway.

I admire your desire and effort to deal with this, both as an individual and as a father of several grown daughters that have had that talk with me. Trust me.. if you are old enought to live alone he will be mature enough to deal with it as long as you deal with it ahead of time and do not surprise him with it. Suggestion: Bring a couple of beers for both of you and leave the BF far away.

If he co-signs he co-signs for both of you, it would be illegal for him not to know who is putting himself on the line for.

You are an adult, as an adult you TELL your father what your life choices are and you live them. If you are too chicken to be honest you are too immature to be in a relationship anyway.
