Hi all,
after internally debating for a long time I made the decision to end my relationship with DP. He is an amazing, loving man who has always respected me, but my feelings have changed and I recently realized I don't love him anymore. I think the relationship has run its course and, as much as this is terribly painful, separating sounds like the best option.
DP has no idea this is coming. There has been a lot of clues that things were not working and tentative conversations where I expressed dissatisfaction, but I think he decided not to aknowledge them. So he thinks we are happily together.
We are not married, no DC and separate finances. Both in good stable jobs. We live together in a place he owns, where I bought some of the furniture but never paid mortgage/ rent. I have lots of savings (in the region of £20k+) so money should not be a problem.
So my question is: how do I handle this logistically?
Is it better to look for a place for myself and talk to him once I am ready to move out? Should I talk to him immediately for the sake of honesty and only then start looking for a place?
What things do I have to plan/ prepare before we have the conversation? What should I know?
Many thanks for your kind advices!
