[quote=Anonymous]Spouse and I were in a relationship for many years before getting married. Second marriage for both of us, we both have kids from previous relationships.  kids are now late teens and early 20s. We both still own our homes and remain responsible for maintaining our individual homes. 
He has said he will not sell his house and that his kids will remain there (part time of course because they are in college and also live with their mother part of the time). He does not want me to move into his house. He wants us  to maintain the 2 homes for an indefinite period of time. He feels this makes financial sense. I disagree and feel that being locked into a financial plan that doesn’t allow for marriage/living together is wrong. 
I understand this type of arrangement works for some people. But it doesn’t work for me.  He gets angry when I approach the topic of us being in a house together. In other words the arrangement works for him so therefore it should work for me. His reaction makes me so confused and upset - I don’t really want to be married to someone that doesn’t want to live with me.  I don’t really “feel” married to be honest.
