Am I an idiot for wanting to move in together?

I’m 21 and I have been with my boyfriend who is 23, for almost nine months. We have a very satisfying relationship and I love him heaps. Now that we’re getting further into our relationship I’m finding I want to see him all the time. He works full time and has been going to tafe twice a week at night, we’ve had busy weekends doing family activities and it just feels like we haven’t had any quality “couple” time together. It’s upsetting me. I really want to take our relationship to that next step and I know he’s very serious about me. Am I an idiot to suggest moving in together? Or, just living part time with me?

Answer #1

You’re not an idiot to suggest it - if that’s what you feel you’re ready for, but we’re not the ones to tell you whether or not this is a good idea.

You need to discuss this with your beau and see what his thoughts are.

Answer #2

An idiot? NO, definitely not! But of course, there are many thing to take into account..like first, how he feels about it and also all the things it will change. Example of the negative aspects: no more personal space, dividing house work, bringing finances into the couple, pet peeves you didn’t even know you had… Of course there are TONS of positive aspects too. I think you just have to be really serious about it and feel ready for all the changes it will bring. Like discuss them with him and be realistic about the difficult parts. Maybe your idea of living part time together at first is a nice way to move in slowly…good luck!!!
