He is really upset, and my house feels really lonely even though my family is with me, are we too attached?
It’s totally normal but I think it’s also important to not allow an emptiness to develop in his absence. Allow yourself to live life with the rest of the family so that you don’t find yourself making decisions in the relationship which focus on filling that void but rather because they are good for you two, and most importantly what you want for yourself. If this relationship is as good as it sounds then there is no reason to rush into it - the absolute best relationships I’ve ever seen or been involved in have large overlaps in life, but do not replace having other people and interests in life.

Not too attached. Sounds like you two got married.
That's normal and it's a good sign that you both get along with each other really well. My Husband moved into my house temporarily when we were dating. Initially he was just going to stay for one month but we got along with each other so well that he never left and then we eventually got married. We cannot imagine living our lives without each other and every time we have to leave the country for work or other purposes I really struggle to spend my time without him the house feels huge and so empty. He told me he feels the same but once we reunite again is Love.
I'm not sure what that actually is but I used to get like that even when I was a kid when my friend would stay over the whole weekend then go home I would feel so empty and lonely once they were gone. I get like that with my partners too, you just have to make sure you have things you enjoy as much as your boyfriend though, because that feeling can be horrible and ongoing lol.

Sounds like you two have gotten a taste of the inseparable pie, and now, going back to just a slice each feels like a major downgrade. Feeling empty or lonely after such constant closeness is normal; it's like coming down from a love high. That intense connection and shared space created a cocoon, and now reality feels cold in comparison. It's crucial, though, to find balance. Being too attached can make the heart over-dependent, but it's only natural to miss each other after being joined at the hip for a month. Work on keeping that connection strong, even when apart, and remember, this phase is a testament to your bond, not a red flag. It's all about blending independence with togetherness in this dance of love. Keep the rhythm going, and you'll find your groove again. 😉

It sounds like you're not attached enough.
From what you said, there isn't a lot of rocket science involved.
You need to be together.
It is most puzzling that you would want to fight it tbh, but maybe there is more to the story then you are saying.
Because you miss being together? Like how hard is this shit to figure out for some people. 🤦♀️
it is a good signal to get together.. it is not about too attached it is about to be filled.
Sounds like you both got a glimpse of your future and you both really liked it. More so than the present
Because you got fucked a lot more when you when you were living together.
You’re already ‘addicted to each other’ because constant companionship can be addicting.

Thats called missing someone lol
Would say that’s an unhealthy attachment
