He hasnt said he loves me, yet wants to move in together. HELP!

Asked by anon20 (26points) February 2nd, 2010

My boyfriend “officially” of 4 months (but we’ve been super “close” for 14 months), whom I do love more than I’ve ever loved a man, is moving in with me. We already agreed we would like to in the future, but a job opening came up so he is doing it to be much closer to work – THIS WEEK.

The problem: He hasn’t said he loves me. Maybe I’m old fashioned, but shouldnt love come before living together? I know he isnt afraid to say it, because he said it to his ex after being with her for one month (total 4 – full of DRAMA and breakups), and only knowing her for 5 or 6. (I know this because that “relationship” caused a lot of sorrow for both of us and it’s a shock we are even together right now – and happy.)

He has said he’s falling in love with me, but won’t ACTUALLY say those three words. He tells me when he feels it in his heart he will say it and mean it 100%. Which is fine. He cleans my whole apartment when he stays the weekend, and is amazing with my son. He is a good man and good to us. I feel he loves us. So normally him saying that would be fine.

Except when you want to live together, especially when I already feel that you should wait until marriage for that. I have a child and I have lived with someone before which was a disaster. I’ve thought about this a lot!

Please any and all advice would be appreciated!!! What the hell is going on & why isnt he just saying it already?!!
