Hey Jay--
I owe you a babblemail. I'll get back to you soon, I promise. As for your current questions...
I think that a good rule is to be honest but vague. Only offer info on the less desirable stuff when it comes up. You don't want to overwhelm, but you don't want to lie.
One thing that is really important for me (and I think for a lot of girls) is to express that you do not WANT to be living with your parents, but circumstances have made it necessary. You want her to know that it isn't that you are lazy and want to leach (sp?) off of your parents. You also don't want her to think that you can't separate from your fam and that you are overly attached to them.
Above all, try to remind yourself that she is interested and wants to learn more about YOU. She doesn't just care about what "stuff" you have. Good luck and keep us posted, okay?
Best,
EE
