<human>: Am I making a mistake? I've been living with my boyfriend for almost a year already. We got along well since we met and although there never really was a burning passion, things have been fine. I moved to the area shortly before meeting him and moved in with him from the furnished room I was temporarily renting. 

Now we just got accepted to a new apartment. The thing is, neither of us will be able to be removed from the lease if something happens because it's not allowed. We can both afford the lease in full, but I don't know if finding a new place will be possible if he or I need to move and have that lease technically in our name. 

I've also been thinking that I may be staying in this relationship out of convenience and financial comfort. It feels like a roommate situation. Some of the reasons it's comfortable to stay: I always have someone to go out with when I want. The few friends I have I've met through my boyfriend and would lose if we broke up. I have no significant belongings (bed, couch, tv), so it would be expensive to move on my own. I'm currently working on a contract that's expiring soon and if it's not extended I could be out of work for months.

I think the year commitment by signing a lease together is freaking me out. Do you think I should go ahead with it? Any other advice on my situation as a whole? Thanks for your help!
