Plus I hate being touched whilst I sleep, when he wakes up he keeps trying to cuddle me and it wakes me up and makes me grumpy 

THEN he gets arsey because “he was just being loving”

I have been happily married 30 years but I still prefer to sleep in a separate bed. Don't compromise on your sleep. Tricky though in a 1 bed flat I guess, do you/ could you have a sofa bed ?

You don't just insist that he can only go back to sleep once he's pleasured you?

Sounds a hoot.

oh dear, the OP doesn't sound good.  If he just hangs around and never goes out then you need to have a chat and he has to understand that you need some space in your own home.   Was it your place and he moved in or the other way round? 

Does he have agoraphobia?

sounds shite

lose the fool

I feel a bit sorry for him stuck there all on his own. Someone get over there and keep him company. 

Can’t help thinking that some of the advice you’re getting here is less than partial 

Wil B&Q take him back?

I found living with another person on 3000 sqft already difficult.  For small spaces such as studios or one-bed flats, you have to go for constant sh@gging!  If that is not an option, kill him.  

Tell him the only reason to touch you whilst you are asleep is to wake you up to bring you to orgasm.

Cuddles should be left outside of the bedroom (exceptions for post orgasm cuddles naturally)

Welcome to married life Pheebs! 

On the plus side - there are at least two dozen roffers that will offer you your own room in the east wing of their home. 

Pheebs - super king size bed and separate duvets is my solution to the bed issue. 
As to him “never leaving the flat”….. that would do my head in. Would he be just as at home under the patio?

Does he buy the drinks?

Seconded re the duvet thing. Own space own weight etc.

U will get used to it (agree an extra room at some point would come in handy).

The first time I lived with a guy I got really fat from anxiety eating maltesers.

And you know how those are mostly air it was a LOT of maltesers

I am over my little strop from earlier, I should clarify that he is on leave this week and it has been pissing it down all week outside.

Also, I only want him to leave so I can be alone in the flat.

Oh we have two duvets, and it is my favourite thing ever.

Phoebs, how's the sex?

Sleep in separate beds

You eat your dinner in 15 minutes, you don't spend the rest of the night with the empty plate do you 

Literally the reason incels are alone.

May have been a joke 

tucks dinner plate in

Night night spoon.

the whole reason for living up north is to live with your partner (and no one else)  in a 6 bedroom house …

also, get a bigger bed 

Bit harsh kicking him out in the rain so you can ha a w**k.

"small one bedroom flat up north"

What's the point in being up north then?

He needs a hobby, that gives you some space. Can't he go to a gym like everyone else in January?

What Mertz said. I have never known a lawyer in North to live in a one bedroom flat with someone else.  The only reason for doing this is if you were serving a sentence.  To be happy living in a house with someone there must be enough room for you to not know if other person is in and have to look for them. 

LawPerson, sex is frequent and very enjoyable. Long may that continue

Beau bought the flat independently (with deposit from BOMAD) and this was all he could afford. So can’t be dissatisfied 

Can he not rent it out and then can you rent  (and eventually) something bigger as a couple. If it’s serious enough to be living together this seems like a better next step.   Then the place will feel ‘joint’ rather than you camping in his space  

so, you moved into his place and are mad that he loves being at his place?  Maybe he thinks it's you who never goes out?

With regard to the touching, one day he will stop doing that and now you have a new problem.
