But if the idea of moving in together already fills you with angst ..then I guess you have your answer.
If it was just me then i would probably do this, just move in with him and if it didnt work out then we go our separate ways, but i have my son and he comes first so this isnt possible. I dont want to move in with him unless im 100% sure.

His sex drive is not as high as yours but it still exists right?
No man is gonna be perfect anyway...it's a trade-off...there is also something you have not thought about but in maybe 4 to 5 years your libido will start to tickle you much less..I think you are at your pick probably right now...how old is your guy?
So don't throw the towel away for the sex drive mismatch...think about it...you did say you love him...
Yes, he's financially stable, has a good job and is fantastic with my son. They get on great, if they didnt then it would be a deal breaker. Yeh we still have sex, regularly, he's 30.

I think my post did just focus on his negatives, he really isnt an inconsiderate person and i wouldnt call him lazy. His job is stressful and tiring both mentally and physically.
He is kind and thoughtful, romantic and funny. He makes me laugh and smile, and when im with him, all of these niggles dont matter, i forget them because everything feels 'right' when we're together.
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
