My property may destroy my relationship

Hello community. So my problem isn't necessarily with a spouse. It is with my boyfriend. I have been looking for my first rental property for about a year and have been dating this guy for 7 months. When I was about to take the wait and see approach to my property search I decided with my mate to move in together instead. While he started looking for apartments I tailored my multi-property search to places that meet our needs. 

Quickly that change produced a property that would produce 13% cash on cash return with no major work needed. The place would even be move in ready by the time we actually need to move. When I bring up the idea of me buying a place he flips out about he is not ready to buy a house ..... and I wasn't  asking him to be. For a lower down payment i need to occupy a unit. Is there any ideas for me being able to occupy the property without losing my relationship?
