I really like my apartment. I want it to be there for me, after he is gone. To put all my furniture and stuff in storage would be a lot of trouble. And then he might have a fatal illness a month after I do all that.

Plus, I like it being plain that I don't depend on him for a place to live. I don't have to be here. He might be less nice, if he thought I had nowhere else to go. And I woukd feel totally responsibke for him, if I technically lived with him.
