Moving in with my boyfriend

I am moving in with my boyfriend this weekend. This, I feel, is a big commitment step in a relationship, one I have never done before and one I never really thought I'd do. It's not that I thought I'd never get a boyfriend, it's more a case of everything I have thought about in my life I have only thought about myself (e.g. own house, career etc) as (from personal experience) you cannot make plans in the hope that it's going to feature someone else. If someone comes along then great. But if not, at least you still have your master plan(s) in life to keep you going.

Anyway, I have never thought of living with a partner before. Out of my 3 previous partners before my current one, 2 of them wanted to live with me, get married and have children. This scared the living daylights out of me as I felt I wasn't ready, was too early or they weren't right for me. The guy I'm with now isn't too fussed about getting married and definitely doesn't want children. This works well for me at the moment because I want to work on my career and having children would bring that to a grinding halt which I don't want. Plus I think I'm too self-centred for children. I like my free time and weekend lie-ins too much to sacrifice them to having children and my boyfriend feels the same. I love him very much and that feeling is returned, we share each others souls and are best friends too. I am really looking forward to this as I feel having him and my plans for life will make me a complete person, something I never thought I'd say.
