Then why are you dating in the first place or seeking a relationship?
Risk taking is fun as well. So unlike everyone else around here who are way too responsible and hate anything remotely fun and risky, I advise throwing open your door and embrace your new roommate and see where it takes you.
Sure there is a chance that this can go epically wrong in many ways, there is also the chance that this can go epically right as well.
As for being ready for a move in sort of situation - that state of being never actually happens. Instead you just reach a point where you are willing to take the risk and allow it to happen - Damn the consequences, full steam ahead - yada yada yada.
Now I'm not saying you just jump in without rules and stuff. A few ground rules and a basic understanding is needed. For instance instead of saying 'sure, lets get married and play house now' make certain he understands that he is moving in as a friend and you both will see where it goes.
And you give him a reasonable amount of time to get his stuff together - job, more education, join the military whatever.
And little spoiler about life. People tend to regret more that which they didn't do over things they did. For instance my greatest regret is Bradley. 20/20 hindsight being what it is I find I refuses to jump at the chance to spend my life with a really great guy which had so much potential to be one of those epic love affairs.
Shame on me for being such a prude and refusing to take risks and live life....
