Living together

mrtwister

Just looking for some advice....been living with my boyfriend since May. We've been together since the start of last year. Everything seemed to be going well until last week he said he wants to move out and isn't sure about the relationship any more. I'm shell shocked to say the least. I'm fairly certain it's the pressure of living together - there haven't been rows (the odd little flare up) but it has been an adjustment being around each other all the time. We're both very independent people, with strong opinions and all our friends would consider us a good couple (they'd be quick to point it out if it wasn't!) - but I wonder did we move in too soon? We've probably spent too much time in each others company - not giving each other enough space, and some money issues mean we haven't gone out as much as we'd like.
I think we just need to iron out those issues, give each other some space, do our own thing more often, have 'date nights' - all the things we probably should have been doing. My only worry is that he has over-reacted or is his talking about moving out already, a bad sign? Any advice would help - really don't want to loose him

I think you need to talk to him and ask him all those questions
