It makes a lot of sense, Racer. It sounds like you've spent a lot of time thinking about this.
Now, *I'm* the one Grandma should be talking to! Just too impulsive and too impatient, and its kept me in a relationship that (for better or worse -- no way of telling now anyway) we both probably would have bailed on a long time ago. Economic codependence is one of today's worst "sins"....
Well, anyway, I say you'll know when to tell him. I also bet he has a secret or two that he's sweating buckets about telling you. Who doesn't have those sorts of things ... you know, like eating crackers in bed. Disgusting!
So how about this? A few days after you move in, have a little celebration. Candlelit dinner. A little wine. And then its "Time to spill a secret that won't be a secret much longer but I'm still stressing way too much over" time? Recommended music selections include Johnny Mathis and Mel Torme.
That. or I'm sure you can find a Hallmark card that says much the same thing with just a bit of research.
