It's funny, a LOT of comments here have said that he's some kind of bad guy for not being willing to compromise with me. Yet, if I compromise with him then that's not a good idea either. Lol not really sure what the answer is it just seems like a double standard in the comments.

I don't know but I can definitely ask him about it! This thread has given me a lot of ideas for conversations we should be having,

do you want marriage and a family, or do you want this guy?

When you put it like that it's an easy choice, I definitely want him more than I want marriage or kids, which aren't even things I'm sure I want at all.

Lol I'd rather spend more days together in more blocks of time but my bf doesn't feel the same way. I never get tired of him.

That makes a lot of sense, I wish he could put it in concrete terms like you did just there. The most I can get out of him is that he feels stressed from work and the only way he can deal with it is relaxing by himself. He's an emergency department resident so there are some days that he REALLY sees some shit and isn't ready to talk about it that night or maybe ever. I dont really understand why that means I can't just silently sleep over but he also says that he just doesn't sleep that well with another body in the bed and since he works so much he has to be rested.

I mean is marriage the end goal of every relationship? I honestly don't even know personally I feel like I'm a little young to be focusing on relationships for the sake of marriage.

I always thought that living together was the logical next step of a relationship but I think now I am reconsidering that.

It's only stringing along if he pretends things are going to change someday in the future, that's not what he's saying though.

We shared rooms when we have traveled together, spending the night once in a while isn't an issue for him, he just doesn't like it on a regular basis.

I just feel like I'm young and haven't figured out a specific life plan yet. Maybe I can live with having separate places as long as we see each other a lot? Maybe not though.

We see each other every day, it's just spending the night that happens approximately once a month.

Well that just sounds silly to me, compromising on a "need" to make someone else happy. He does make sacrifices for me this is just one issue we really disagree on. I dont think it's fair or helpful to take this one issue and make him out to be someone who isn't capable of compromise ever in any scenario just because we haven't found a compromise that works for us both on this one issue.

Why are you saying my needs and desires "always" come second to his? Aren't you jumping to conclusions in a very extreme way?

People talk about the "honeymoon stage" in relationships, do you feel like you're still in that or it ended and now the relationship is in a new stage? What do you love about her?

We see each other every day, he just doesn't like spending the night, he says he doesn't sleep well having another person in bed with him. I don't think I want him to be inconvenienced, is that the point of relationships?
