That’s his way of telling you that he wants to take his relationship with you to the next level.

In his mind, this is how he shows you that he is serious.

So far, you two aren’t an official couple.

He wants you two to be an official couple.

Instead of coming right out and asking that of you, he tells you that he wants you to move in with him.

He believes that doing this lets you know that he is trustworthy.

In having you move in with him, you are privy to what he does on a daily basis.

It is easier to track his behavior when you live with him than when you live separately.

He has it in his mind that you have an issue with trust in regards to men.

In telling you that he wants you to move in with him, he is hoping to earn your trust.

Of course, to you, this is far too much too soon.

You two are getting to know each other, and although there is attraction, moving in with him was the furthest thing on your mind at this juncture.

I hear you.

It is strange to receive such a request.

You have never had a guy ask you to move in like this before.

Nonetheless, this wasn’t a strange request to him.

In his mind, he is showing you that he is someone who is serious about getting into a serious relationship with you and someone to be trusted as a boyfriend.

His intention to demonstrate that he is trustworthy in having you move in with him is not without his own selfish motives.

In moving in, he gets to watch your movements too.

He knows where you are at all times and whose bed you are coming back to every night.

This is a guy with insecurity issues.

He is fearful of dating a woman who cheats on him behind his back.

In having you move in with him, he gets to keep an eye on you.

While he gets to keep an eye on you, he gets to exert control over his relationship with you.

Furthermore, he isolates you, keeping you to himself.

Under his roof, he gets to monitor who is coming in and out of your life, which gives him the power to influence how frequently you get to share time with them.

This is a guy who doesn’t have a lot of close relationships with people in his life.

With you under his roof, he gets to have you all to himself, without having to put in the work into developing close relationships with anyone else in his life.

You become his girlfriend, best friend, mother, aunt, housemaid, etc., all at the same time.

Scared you enough yet?

Needless to say, this guy is trouble.

Not only should you not move in with him, you shouldn’t be dating him in any capacity henceforth.

You are dodging a bullet by ditching this guy ASAP.
