i did it

I did it. Tuesday night i told him. i told him i cant move in with him. he didnt take it well. at all. he's kind of talking to me now. just. but now i have another problem. at the moment i'm living with a friend. i moved in with her after i left my ex. and for the past 3 weeks he's been staying with me at my friends house. now, if i was still moving in with him it would be okay for me to say we have to hurry up and move into the house so as to not put my friend out any longer (even though she doesnt really mind him being there too much-i still feel bad) but now i'm not moving in with him how do i push him to sort the house out and move without it looking like im just trying to get rid of him. he's still not really okay with me after me telling him im not ready to move in with him, how can i now ask when he's leaving? i feel really bad. i asked him what he wants to happen with us now cos he was going on like he cant trust the stuff i tell him as in if i changed my mind about that what else am i going to change my mind about. and he said he doesnt know what he wants to happen yet as that depends how things are going to be between us. i said so what do you think is going to change between us, do you think we're never going to see each other if we're not living together and he said i dont know thats why we'll have to wait and see how it is. there is so much going on in my head at the moment and i just need some space but cos he's staying with us he's constantly there. this isnt easy. not long since i was in this situation with my ex desperately dont want to be back in it already with him.

i say try to take it slow. its a good thing you decided not to move in with him if you're not ready for that kind of stuff. dont be too blunt when you tell him that he has to leave the house/apartment. casually talk to him. plus, if he's gonna b an idiot and give you the silent treatment then i dont think he really respects your decision.

someone i know just went through this whole thing with her boyfriend. see, she started dating the guy after he dumped his old girlfriend because he had feelings for her. then, after they had been dating for a while, she was unconfortable with his ex b/c he was constantly with her and shit. it got to the point where she was hearing rumors about him doing stuff that's not too hot for a boyfriend to do (a.k.a. he was "playfully" throwing ice down her shirt and getting it back! what a pig!). anyways, long story short, she dumped him! thank god!!!!!

i think that if a guy's giving you more trouble than benefits, then don't bother. on the other hand, you could take this as just a rough patch and trudge through it (that is, if the pros outweigh the cons). maybe this is just your boyfriend going through a stupid phase or something. at least he's not fooling around with other girls if he wants you to move in ;)
