I see no problem with moving in with your boyfriend, but I would not recommend moving in with him and his roommate. If you really need to save money, move in with some girls and spend as much time at your boyfriend's as you want. But living together is very, very different than when you have separate places and your relationship should grow and change through the process. You might need the "space" to adapt to your new situation and if there's a 3rd person in the mix, the two of you won't have as much freedom to sort out what you'll need to sort out.

It's nice he's looking to save you money, but if he really wants to live with you, he should get rid of his male roommate and live with just you. Plus, you and your boyfriend might do ok, but what if the male roommate doesn't like the changes around the place and gets mad that now he's the odd man out in his own apartment? Your bf might get torn between you and a guy he knows really well and has already lived with. Or you might be the odd man out because they already have a "rhythm" of living together and you either need to find a way to fit in or you might throw it all off. It just seems fraught with too many downsides, IMO. Wait until the two of you are ready and able to just live with each other, if you're going to do it.
