How do I tell him that I'm starting to feel smothered?

Question - (15 March 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 15 March 2011)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend and I have been together for give or take 7 months. Ok so, I moved into my own place a couple of months ago. For the past month, he has been sleeping over almost every night. Also for the past month, he has been laid off of work. I wake up really early in the morning, and go to work. He stays in bed. Sometimes, when I get home - he is still at my house. And sometimes I have the night to myself, but he still makes his way over at midnight and crawls into bed. I love him, and I love his company. But I feel a little invaded and I feel like I still need my own space. He comes over and puts his laundry in, showers, etc. I don't know how to bring it up. He has his own house, it is half an hour away up a hill. I know if I want a solo night I just have to tell him. But I just feel like why don't you do certain things at your house why do you have to do them at my house? I don't know if this makes sense but I am just feeling irritated and I don't know how to go about bringing it up or even how to say what I am trying to say. I feel smothered!
