I’m not even trying to be like that but lowkey leave him if you want to experience life. I was in two longish term relationships (1.5 years and 2.5 years), and the second one was soon after my first breakup. I wanted to experience life. I wanted to be ME. I truly cannot be my whole true self with someone else but that’s just me.

A year now long distance :) we’re at different stages in life and he’s a big homebody (he’s a few years older than me) and doesn’t have much interest in getting out and doing exciting things

Ngl especially since it’s been long distance, I think you are making a better decision in wanting to have your own place (in a more exciting city too). Not that he’s a bad guy, just my opinion

Ofc. And he grew up a lot differently than I did, im an only child and he grew up with a sibling so he doesn’t get why i need a transition phase. I do wanna live with him eventually but this is the first time im truly living on my own and i wanna have that experience of independence

And again, not trying to be like that. But I fear after both relationships I found myself grieving the routine, familiarity, and what I wished it was opposed to the reality of it. Just live your life queen and do not let anyone be in YOUR way
