We already live together but my boyfriend doesn’t want marriage—what now?

Now the ball is in your court. You know that he doesn’t want to get married, but you do. The only options with him going forward is to stay together and never get married, or break up. Living together doesn’t mean much; if you’re on a lease together then you either speak with your landlord (or whoever is in charge of that), explain your situation and ask to break the lease early. They would likely have you pay some sort of fee depending on what’s left of your rent (at least that’s how it goes over here), but that’s all. If I were you, I’d definitely be ending that relationship, because you can’t talk him into getting married, it also isn’t one of those things where his mind will change with time. I wouldn’t want to sacrifice major milestones like babies and marriage for someone who doesn’t want either (or both) of those things.

Well yeah why would he want to marry you when you're already giving him all the benefits of marriage without required any of the responsibilities of marriage from him?

If that is what you want and he doesn't, and never will, you don't have much choice but to move on to find what you want.
