I have been looking for a roommate to replace my current (female) roommate next semester in my apartment. Its a two bedroom/two bathroom place, so there is plenty of privacy. My main prospect is a male, he fits all of my criteria and is very easy going and polite, and also has a girlfriend. He's pretty much the perfect match for what I'm looking for. However, when I told my boyfriend of four years of my plans to sign a lease with the guy, he was completely against it. His reasons are "[he's] just not ok with it", "its a gut feeling that none of [my] words will change", etc. He has told me that he cannot live with that, and it would make him very unhappy and in turn end our relationship or make it shitty. I've tried to tell him that not only is this the 21st century, but I'm not an animal that just fucks anything with the opposite genitals, and that the guy has a girlfriend, etc. My boyfriend has since outright told me that nothing I say will change how he feels. I love him to death, but this is really bothering me and I feel like submitting to this gives up my autonomy and he should become more rational and be ok with it. I'm not sure what I should do.
