Moving forward in a relationship

I'm 42 and met a lovely man ten months ago the same age. I had concerns that he was stalling moving the relationship forward (as in staying over, kids meeting) and he admitted it was because he was scared of being all in and losing someone and a home again.

We talked it through and put some plans in place to do more together and merge lives more but then covid hit and everything has been put on hold. I'm not sure now how to bring up the conversation again, he seems quite content and I know in the long run I want and need more from him than he's currently giving.

What's the best way to test the waters and see if he's prepared to put the things he said before lockdown into practice - without nagging, he needs to do things willingly).

Telling him what you want for your future is not nagging. You need to talk to him.
