His home, My own Home & no intentions of Marriage... WWYD?

Here's the Scoop! Mirage needs imput please.

I am a "live in" girlfriend (3+ Yr.). My guy owns his house, we share nothing financially and since we decided we are not going to get married their is a great possibility that we will never have anything jointly.

So, I am in a great relationship, no problems, I am truly happy but I feel like since in living with him, I will never have any of my own security. I decided that I am going to buy myself a house (Been actively looking). I told him my intentions and he seems a bit dumb founded. He says things like, are you not happy here etc.

It is not a case of unhappiness it is a case of I want my own investment, I want my OWN security, I want something that I can totally call my own home. With this relationship and no binding commitment you would think he would be overjoyed that I want to make this move in my life. It is not like I am ending what we have, I just will not be living or funding his "dream" any longer ... but my own.

Please tell me if this is obsurd?? I just figure I should have something too and since we are not marrying, not intertwining our finances that heck, I do not want to be 65 and still have nothing.

You thoughts? Thank you.
