To make a long story short, my girlfriend wants to start living together, an idea I'm less than thrilled about. She gave me the whole "I want to see if you're committed" and the "I never could marry someone I've never lived with" lines, which I find slightly unfair. Yes, I do love her but as it stands, I happen to like the amount of freedom I have at the moment, and I feel that if we start living together then I'm definitely going to lose that as she is *Slightly* bossy and a complete neat-freak (Something I am totally not). I simply don't like the idea of having my girlfriend around 20+ hours a day. I like being around her, but not all the time.

Does that make me selfish? Slightly. I know it does. Anyway, as it stands, my girlfriend is rather pissed at me for my apparent lack of commitment and is putting all types of pressure on me. And I don't know what to do. It's either risk losing her or do something in which I really, really don't want to do at this point in time.

Any advice?
