Hey everyone,

I am 24 and my bf is 37. I like him a lot.But we have a huge issue (or it seems huge to me).
Due to some circumstances, he comes over to my place and I am ok with it. Yet, he never spends the night. He can leave at 2 a.m. saying "I can't sleep and I don't want to keep you up all night." or some excuses like that. We got into a fight as I don't understand whether the problem is in me and he said "When I don't sleep well at night I get moody the next day and get headaches".

Has anyone faced this kind of an issue? I don't know how to react on this

Depending on "the circumstances", don't worry too much about it. He's considerable older and probably more accustomed to sleeping alone. As long as those circumstances don't include someone else waiting for him at home, I wouldn't get too upset about it.

You're at a phase in your life where you probably want someone to stay through the night, do the coffee/ breakfast/ morning thing, but after someone has been in a relationship(s) and then spent time alone, sometimes sleeping and waking up alone is really nice. I love having the bed to myself, waking up when I choose, not sharing the newspaper... bliss.

Me. But Im much like your bf when staying over a girlfriend house. Im an early bird, and train/run at 2-3am and don't want to wake her up; best if I just go home and sleep.

I'm sure some compromises can be made.

He is not married of course
Well he is moving to another state in two weeks. so he sold his house and has been living with his parents for last 30 days. So I don't want to spend the night at his parents' place. That is why he comes to my place.

Well he does snores. Yet, I don't wake up the next morning saying "Oh you were snoring and did not let me sleep whole night!". I use earplugs

Are you all breaking it off when he moves to another state?

Maybe because he is too old for you, that's a huge age gap, ur 24 and hes 37? wow, anyways your like a little girl to him, he Is trying to tell you to get a life and leave him alone I guess, he doesn't really want anything to do with you since your still 24 and way too young for him. If you really had a boyfriend, you would know how to deal with him but you don't and that's why you come here complaining about him.....
