I’m 20F, he’s 25M. We met in January and have been dating since last month. He’s already met my parents - they love him, and he hangs out at our house all the time. Literally no one has any issues with him, he’s super welcome here. I invited him to sleep over for a few days this week just for fun, but he said he’s not comfortable with it - apparently it feels too “intimate” for him? Like, he’s got this thing about doing private stuff with other people around. I just want him to relax a bit. We’re all adults here, and everyone knows people have private lives. How can I help him feel more okay with it?

    Here’s just another way to look at it. He moved out of his parents’ house and lives alone now. He’s probably not looking to live with someone else’s parents on the regular, even if for only a few days. He probably enjoys his autonomy. He doesn’t mind you sleeping at his place because he likes you, but he didn’t sign up for the whole family.
