Moving in with the boyfriend..

no i'm not but my bf has been asking me for a while now. he has been living on his own for almost a year now and of course it was to be expected that sooner or later i'd be invited to live with him. now two things make me refuse this extremely attractive offer:

1- my parents would never ever ever accept their 18 years old girl to leave the house unmarried and with studies unfinished. my dad is italian, go figure out there's no way i'm getting out of this without bad comments from my whole family. my dad doesn't even consider me as an adult even though i now have the legal age and told me when i'll be 20 he'll consider considering me as an adult. i have very overprotective parents.

2- i love my boyfriend to death and yeah i'd do it BUT i feel i am still not enough stable money wise to get in an appartment with him. i know i still need to make some crazy ass shoppings that if i won't be able to do if i go live with him. plus i don't like my current new job so i'll be searching for another one. financial stability is one thing i need if i get out of my parents' place.

for those 2 reasons, it makes me refuse this offer. if i had another financial situation and parents who are less into traditions, i'd have most probably accepted. i don't know if he feels like i'm letting him down. i know he understands my situation and everything and i guaranteed him that by the 2008 summer i'll be living with him, not before. he never actually asked me officially to move in with him, but he talks about it and he gets a no from me every time.

oh well. just felt like talking about it. i know he'll wait for me and he understands me even though he'd like me to say yes and move in.

he knows he is the man of my life, i want him to be the father of my kids and everything. i picture myself with him married. before him i never believed in marriage because i never believed i'd get that much in love and that'd be able to be faithful for a lifetime. i know with him i could. he never bores me, we never get into arguments that last more than one or two hours. we are very similar and that the same time different on many things. he is my sister soul for sure. and its the same for him about me. :) and of course i am planning in getting married with him in the next 6 years. i know i see far but he does too. i'm crazy in love.

oh my god i should write a book. look at me writing like this. i guess i jsut can't stop talking about him. i love him so much. and i'm sure there's a couple of you feeling what i'm saying here.

I think your making the right choice, dont want to put your relationship in a situation where money destroys that. But I think living together before marriage is a good idea once your sorted with the education and job. Nice to hear things are going well with you ;)

I agree with artisticgurl.

You sound like you have your head screwed on :)

You sound like you are so happy and i am sure you will know when you are ready to move in with him :)

^yeah well i dont think money would be a problem because he already told me i'd be paying like internet, cable and my cell while he'd be paying the rest (rent, his cell, food = more expensive). and he knows i dont have a good part time job like he does so he's comprehensive about it.

but yeah i got an head on my shoulders and i have too many things to deal with before moving in. in a year and a half i should have sorted everything, til then i'll keep seeing him almost everyday to not say everyday.

Sounds good Carmi, at least you aren't rushing into anything.

It will make moving in with him more special cos you didn't rush into anything :)
