Been with my BF for 3 years - we relocated to another country and each have a half share in the house. Didn't live together before we moved here and although we get on really well with regard to the actual living together - I have not felt emotionally supported and have often complained about this which he found very offputting. I know I am over sensitive due to childhood insecurities and want to talk about the relationship too much. He has now decided that he doesn't want to continue together and wants to sell the house and I am struggling with this - I have worked really hard to learn to support myself emotionally and am not expecting him to meet those needs but he says it's all too late now. There is no one else involved. I have refused to sell the house but is this fair? Mostly I manage to live in the moment but am worried about what will happen next. He thinks I am not accepting the reality of where we are. I guess there is some truth in that. I am 53 and left my job to move here - it was quite a niche job and I don't expect to be able to find another job anywhere near as good or even to be able to buy a house. I can't really support myself on my own here either and am finding it difficult to see a way forward.
