Why it’s OK that you’re not ready to move in together – It doesn’t mean you’re not in love. I love my boyfriend a lot. Together, he and I have established a bond and intimacy that’s unlike any other relationship I’ve experienced before.

But I’m not ready to move in with him.
Being really in love, committed and ready to move forward doesn’t mean you HAVE to feel ready to move in with your partner.
If you’re in a similar boat to me (come on in, the water’s fine), here are some things to keep in mind:
1. Just because you aren’t ready NOW that doesn’t mean you won’t ever be ready.
You’re a human being with complex feelings and thoughts. Surprise!
I mean, you could be a robot, but I find that idea highly suspect. If you ARE a robot, please email me, because I have always wanted a robot best friend.Because you’re human, you have a great capacity for change.
Telling your boyfriend or girlfriend that you aren’t ready to move in together RIGHT NOW, doesn’t mean that you’re not in love don’t love him and won’t ever be ready to move in.
Don’t be fooled: moving in together is a big deal! Your instincts are right.
Sure, it’s practical, you save money, all that good stuff.
But it does mean also upping the seriousness of your relationship in a real way.
If you aren’t ready to do this yet, don’t force it.
It’s better to be honest about your feelings and explain to him (and yourself) that “not now” doesn’t mean “never” moving in together.
