    Yeah he owes me £300 plus about 2 months maintenance...doubt I shall see the £300 now but to be honest I don't care, just being able to move on is worth more!

    Morning diary seem to have gone back to waking up early... Know it's stress induced!
    Had a lovely chat last night with R and we are going to start putting plans together about where we go from here. He looked at a few houses close by (10 miles ish) from here which he said he could afford to get on his own for now and then we could move in when the time was right. Part of me is very very excited and the other part of me doesn't want to leave the comfort that I have. I think if the place is right those feelings will go and I'll be happy. Maybe there is also an element of being scared that what if our relationship changes dramatically when we move in together or that there is something
    majorly annoying which I don't know about (I don't know why I am worrying really as I know there isn't)

    Ohhhh house hunting!!! Exciting.

    I'm sure those feelings will go if you find the right house but if they don't, listen to them and hang back a bit, another few months isn't going to hurt. Just carry on being open with each other and I'm sure he'll understand.

    The thought of the unknown and a move to a newish area is always going to be a frightening prospect without throwing in a "new relationship" to the mix so don't beat yourself up about having a few niggly doubts, I think every single one of us would be worrying on some level.

    Don't want to put a dampener on things when you are so happy but just a note of caution (and I am sure you have already thought about this) but if he bought/rented somewhere on his own, you need to sort out finances etc so that if things didn't work out, you wouldn't be left without anywhere to live or without any money to move on!
