Would you like to live really close to your SO, during the first weeks/months of a relationship?
Currently, my boyfriend and I (together for about a month) live close but not too close. Big city, about an hour and a bit, by public transport (so, less since we meet halfway). I was talking with my parents and told them I would actually be uncomfortable if we lived 15 minutes away or something that close. Because that way we could see each other all the time and we would get tired of each other. They were horrified and said I must not like him very much then.
But it's not that, I really care about him and I'd love to kiss him right now (we saw each other during the weekend, and are seeing each other again the next one), but we don't have many things we like to do, and how many times you can go and grab coffee? If we could do that multiple times a week I fear things would be tiresome after a while.
I focus on the new aspect of the relationship, because I don't feel this way with someone you know well. They mentioned people who live together, and of course, they see each other all the time, but it's not the same.
So, does anyone get what I'm saying or I'm really too weird and detached?
