Wants his own space to go out with his friends?The beginning of the end?

Hmm, it seems that my response was eaten by the post monster.grr. Anyways, I don't want to retype it all so I'll just give you the gist of what I was saying.

First, moving in after 3 months in my mind is too fast. I don't move in with a girl until AT LEAST 6 months. Partly this is practical, if you break up then one person's going to have to move out and find another place. Also, 3 months isn't a long time in a relationship, and in my experience certainly not long enough to move in together. You still have so much to learn about each oher before you make such a commitment and to me it sounds like you rushed it.

Every guy will reach a point that freaks him out in the relationship, I can't tell you why it happens or when it's going to happen, just that in most cases it does. When this happens we just can't be around you because it's hit us that the relationship is getting too serious, and that maybe we are moving too fast. There is a natural course to all relationship and it's important to be able to asses when is the right time to take the next step.

Moving in together is a big step because there are always those things that the other person does that are going to annoy you. Over the long run if you don't talk about these things, they'll just end up bubbling under the surface until there is just so much pressure that one of you explode resulting in a bad break-up.

I'd suggest that if he feels suffocated by you, give him space. However, if he starts spending so much time with his friends or doing other things that he begins to neglect you, seeing you only once a week, then you have problems and you need to talk about this. You can't be afraid though of what he's going to say, maybe getting together was a bad idea in his mind and he doesn't want to hurt your feeling by telling you the truth. This is a possibility and if you're going to confront him, make sure that you're ready just in case. A lot of girls make the mistake of approaching their guy without even considering how she's going to react if she doesn't hear what she wants. She'll either get really angry or really upset and if you're in a public place it's going to make a scene and you don't want this.

Finally, you just have to feel it out. When he does spend time with you how does he treat you? If he has been working a lot and hasn't seen you is he happy to see you or does he just want to have sex and then leave and go do other things? If it's the latter, that should raise a few red flags. It's important to understand that guys can make really stupid decision when they start to think with their dick, and even though we know nothing good will come of it we do it anyways because sex is just too tempting. In a relationship you WANT to spend time with your significant other, and yeah sometimes you do need space, but the whole deal with space is that it's supposed to make you realize how much you miss not being with them.
