Ive been seeing him just over two months, its all going great, having lots of fun. However he just doesnt want to sleep over. He has a few times, but doesnt sleep - says he cant sleep with somone else in a bed and isnt used to it.
Which i supose is fair enough... but, i dont know, makes me feel crap.
We had plans for sat through to sunday. Sat 11pm he develeoped a headache so decided he wanted to go home at 12. he doesnt drive, so i had to take him home. Sunday we saw each other...
We had rough plans for monday night - through till tue, which he posponed till last night. He had been going to stay then, seeing as i have the next day off and could take him to work ( in the same town as me, he lives the next town along).
Anyway - he postponed, no worries. last night we saw each other, all great - until at 11:45 pm he decides hes not staying and wants to go home, again with me having to take him.
( dd is with her father at this point, this isnt happening when she is about)

I feel its a little bit crap

We are going away for the weekend together and he has said hes a bit worried about the sleeping thing.

Ive not been anything other than understanding, but im a little bit hurt, and then narked off with the late night driving about too.

AIBU and making something out of nothing?

YANBU. He can get over it if he chooses to.

I could have written your post about a BF before I met my DH. He was 34, lived at home with his parents and refused to stay over because he said it was "rubbing his mum's face in it." He was fine if we went on holiday, but not staying at mine and then going home. On the very rare occasions he DID stay, he could only get to sleep after a wank. Not sex. He was very very particular in lots of ways - he could only go to work from home not from anywhere else as it would destroy his routine, he would only ever bathe, not shower, and always had a wee in the bath, he kept all his savings in his current account so he could see the £40,000 balance when he got money at the cashpoint, the list of oddities goes on for miles.
He didn't have a diagnosis of any type but from everything I've read, I think he might have had aspergers. He was a kind, generous, funny bloke but was a boy in a man's body. I wonder if your chap is similar?
