I need serious advice on my relationship

[texas*princess]

I'm with everyone who said it probably isn't the best idea to move in w/ your guy (and his current roomie).

After college, I had a similar situation to yours - dating a guy for several years, had plans to marry, etc. but after college, I wanted my own place.

I did move in with him temporarily until I got my first gig post-school, but I immediately got an apartment of my own after that.

I did spend most of my time at his place after I moved out and had a section of the closet, a toothbrush, etc, like OTW mentioned, but it was nice to have a retreat of my own b/c since we were both right out of college he had a smaller apartment and sometimes I just wanted to be on my own for a little bit.

I will also say that 3 or 4 months after I moved into my own place, we ended the relationship .... so having my own place didn't make it all awkward whereas if I was living with him, I probably would have had to move out at that point. I'm not saying that your relationship is doomed, just saying it was nice to already have a place of my own and not suddenly be forced into that position, ya know?

If you absolutely need to save money (or live in an insanely expensive area) get a female roomie and move into your own place.
