Be honest with him,tell him that you enjoy living with him but you you feel you are neglecting aspects of your life.When you tell him make it all about you not about him that way he won't feel hurt and think you don't love him or buying the house was a mistake .Tell him your friends have have noticed that you are not calling them anymore and that you would like to lunch with them and catch up.And remember it works both ways if he needs space make sure you give him his too.Living together does not have to be a sentence,you don't have to live in each others pockets 24/7.Just be sensitive its probably not his fault.
