I guess it depends on how close you are to your boyfriend. Next year when I start college, i'll be moving in with my boyfriend who will be in his 3rd year and we've been dating for 5 months as of now. It's quite a ways from home as well, around a full day to drive there!
have you tried staying at his house for a few days in a row? That way you have a feel of how he runs things in his house, and it won't be too much of a surprise when you finally move in. Also, how close are you to his parents? I'm pretty close to his mom, as his dad's in Egypt for the miliary. I think that would help alot as well as you can also fall back on her for questions and support, and she knows her son best!
Another question to ask yourself, can you see yourself marrying him in the future? or are you just moving in for the convenience and to share the cost of rent, etc?
it's really not worth moving in with someone unless you can trust them 100% to not ditch on you. It would be quite a hassle moving out again, and finding your own place. And not to mention the heartache.
But if you really love him, and you know that he loves you and that he'll never cheat on you, by all means take the next step! Why wait longer if you know he's the one? You've already lasted longer than 90% of college relationships! :)I wish you the best!
