Today, my boyfriend of almost five years told me, due to health issues, he can't move in with me or propose to me. He knows I support him, but if it was a serious health issue, wouldn't he want to be married, knowing I'm there? FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend of 8 years moved in with two other women. He's spent the past 2 years telling me he can't afford to move out of his parent's house. FML
Today, my boyfriend of almost 5 years told me that his reason for staying with me is because he doesn't want to go through our storage unit to decide who would get what. We've had the storage unit for 2 years. FML
Today, my boyfriend declared he doesn't feel ready to move in with me for at least "some more years". We have already been together for five years. When he bought an apartment one year ago, he kept it a secret for three months. Maybe I should learn to take a hint. Or several hints. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he wants to marry me and be the father of my children. Five minutes later, he told me he wants to experience death. FML
Today, I told my boyfriend that I didn't want to go out with him because I was having a fat day. After ten minutes of fighting, he threw a ring box on the floor and stormed out. I basically refused his proposal because of my body issues. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, saying he had to move away to be with his dad, who's just been diagnosed with cancer. After talking to his sister, I discovered that not only is his dad healthy, he's not moving away either; he's just gotten back with his ex. FML
Today, after months of planning, my boyfriend told me he's changed his mind and doesn’t want to move with me to where I got a job. Why? He doesn’t want to live that far away from his mother. FML
Today, my husband told me the only reason we're still together is because he can't afford to move out. FML
Today, my boyfriend of 6 years told me that since I've proven my loyalty and faithfully stuck by his side, he has no reason to ever consider marrying me, because "It's not like you're going anywhere, honey." He seems not to understand why I am upset by this. FML
Today, I've been bedridden for the past two weeks. My boyfriend casually remarked that he understands now why some people cheat on their seriously-ill partners. Thanks for adding to the stress, sweetie. FML

You are dating for 5 years and he is not able to move to the "next level" of your relationship due to a health issue he can not discuss with you? Let me put a big BS flag on this. You should assume that he is not ready, for whatever reason, to either move in together and/or to marry and the health issue is - mostly - an excuse.

OP, you remind me of my friend. She went on a Tinder date and saw a ring on the guy's finger. However, he told her not to worry as he's not married. Apparently, it's his male friend's ring and he simply put it on so that it doesn't get lost while the friend's in the army (yes, I know...) Guess what - she believed him.

SSI payments are canceled if you have a long-term relationship, common-law marriage, or marriage with anyone. He can't move in or marry you because he'd lose his income, and you'd have to support both of you.

No, when I'm sick, I'd rather be alone. It makes things worse to be surrounded by sad people.
