Yes.  Speaking as a veteran of a 9 yr. relationship from teenagers that ended in divorce. I’m assuming you are in your early 20’s…. and this being probably your first or only relationship with nothing else to go on as well.  I feel obligated to say something.  From the sound of it your hearts aren’t in this.  Reasons: he’s saved no money, you are “expecting” to be close to if not engaged “already after 8 yrs” and you feel like you aren’t going anywhere.  These attitudes are not the attitudes to have.  You said it yourself he’s a nice guy and all but not once in your post did you say you are head over heels in love with this man and can definitively say he is THE ONE.  You can’t say he’s a man because he isn’t just yet, he’ll get there but not now.  But his actions and yours just prove this is a conflict of attitudes and interests.  Furthermore, when you start to get on the internet for answers to your relationship you need to talk to him.  Because the more you communicate with him the quicker you find out the truth and the quicker you do that the better.  Trust me!  I wish you both the best of luck regardless.
