For context, we’ve been living together not too long with two other roommates. He says he really enjoys living with me but he believes is scared our relationship may suffer if we continue living together. I have my own place, so I can go home but I don’t particularly want to as I’m scared it’ll affect the relationship. He’s not good at texting at all but in person he is great. He effectively mentioned me ‘going home’ in passing but when I asked again he told me there are some things I do which he doesn’t feel particularly happy with. Like I stop him gaming (says he thinks I’ll be bored so he doesn’t want to play) despite me never asking him to stop, i’ve only asked him to stop if we have had a previously decided plan. There were other reasons like me sleeping later than him, and wanting to go outside rather than stay home and not giving him ‘quiet time’-all of which he said feels like his life is being dictated by me; but he mainly said he was just afraid after a while we may start disliking one another? I told him im more than happy to set boundaries with him on all of these things and said if he needs quiet time I can definitely give that to him. I explained I believe if we can’t live together now then in the future we most probably can’t too- if he’s bugged by me now surely he will be in the future. In the end he told me it’s fine we can live together but for the sake of the roommates alternate between our places. But i don’t want him to be forced to live with me, I mean if he is struggling I think boundaries could be a good idea but I don’t want him to reluctantly agree to living with me. Now his mind is ‘changed’ should I still go home despite not wanting to?

EDIT: i really don’t doubt he loves me or wants us to break up

TLDR: BF has expressed his desire for me to go home, but has now told me I can stay. Should I still leave ?
