AIO - Boyfriend lives in my apartment without my permission

My boyfriend is living in my flat without my permission. He rents out his own flat, which is about 60 km away from mine. He isn’t working. Our days go like this: in the morning I get up, go to work, he picks me up from work, we go shopping, make dinner, watch TV and go to bed. The next day, the cycle repeats itself, and so on throughout the week. At the weekends, we go out to see friends or to a restaurant. I need at least one day a week to be on my own. He argues that I’m at work without him anyway (for 8 hours) and accuses me of not wanting to spend time with him; he’s getting on my nerves. Am I overreacting? Is it normal to see each other every day at my flat after 7 months in a relationship? Out of simple courtesy, shouldn’t we go ‘back to our own place’ once in a while?

We are fighting about this every week when it’s my “free” day. So I am spending it fighting by texts and calls when it’s finally over the next day he’s picking me up from work and the cycle repeats itself.

Reddit consensus: NOT OVERREACTING (NOR) (98% confidence)

Top comment: “Is he paying rent? Why is he living there if you have not given permission? If he rented his place out you must have been aware of his plan.

Why do you let this hobosexual bulldoze your boundaries? You are under reacting.”

Notable explanation: “NOR - Even if you were married and living together consentually, you have the right to wanting time alone. My older sister had a clingy boyfriend that would have been happy to live in a single room with her, just the two of them, for eternity, no internet, just them. She normally likes several hours alone to herself daily, so the fact that he was glued to her side was a constant source of stress for her. He also couldn't let her listen to ONE song on her headphones without interrupting her and feeling excluded.

Your dude sounds so clingy it makes my skin crawl. Having "time away from him" while you are at work doesn't count. You aren't relaxing, unwinding, and getting grounded at work. You're working. Coming home to be able to just read a book or dance naked in your living room if you want is important. Especially if you're an introvert, and need that quiet time to recharge.

I find it concerning that he is dismissing your wants and needs for his own. It's also concerning that he is living with you unofficially 7 months in, and can't understand that you want a day to yourself, or time to yourself. That if you do choose to have a day to yourself, he ruins it by texting and calling until the day is over, thus making it a non-viable way anyway.

My first thought is: it's only 7 months: is this what you really want? If he won't change and let you breathe, can you be happy? Me second is: he knows he's ruining that day for you, and he doesn't care. He wants what he wants and your needs don't matter. This is not someone I would consider a safe person.”
