The posting I felt had a REAL message that ALL females should take not of was " revelationmaster " he is spot on, read it and think about very carefully.
Why would any woman move in with a man UNLESS she intended being there for the rest of her natural, have children with the man, where already the relationship is as smooth silk, run likes clockwork..Living together offers NO real security, not in the financial sense but in the relationship itself - you get to play home, be the head cook and bottle washer, as most females in this situation end up the ones who take of the domestics. Personally not sure what the attraction is, but then I don't need to live under the same roof 24/7 to FEEL loved or respected, or to be totally committed to. Each to their own.
But I will just add, if you put your finances together and it doesn't work out - you have no claim on anything, unless your name is on everything legally. Which comes back to 'revelationmaster' posting..which I agree with totally!
You may feel differently though about it. Only don't just end up sharing, but have none of the commitment that goes with it.

Any woman who moves in with a guy is nuts. There is no commitment on the part of the guy, but a huge commitment on the part of the woman. Don't compromise yourself. What ever happened to marriage? If a guy loves you enough, he'll propose. It's easy for a guy to say, Move in with me." Woman are really blind when it comes to this. I'm a guy; I know how guys think. Don't be a fool. There are 3 billion men in this world; some of them are truly honest in their relationship. Look for one.

Why would you even consider moving in with a guy, you say you don't trust - believe me getting out of a BAD relationship is far worse from living under the same roof, than from the firm foundations of your own place, where you're secure and can make decisions without fear of losing a home too.
May be, you guys have reached the end of your journey together, not every relationship has to go to the next stage, unless it's right, and feels natural to both people.

 I can tell you that having been in a long distance relationship that went down the road that you're on right now, I don't recommend moving in with him...yet. Trust your gut instinct that is telling you that something is wrong, because something is indeed wrong.
The dropped calls, no show dates, especially after three years, these are a clear sign that something is up. He may be just afraid to say that he wants out because he doesn't want to be the bad guy. I would keep things as they are right now until YOU feel that things are right. Unless he has a very good reason for the dropped calls and missed dates, do not move in with him right now.
