I ask because my fiancee has just moved out but we are suposed to still be in a relationship and I wondered if anyone else has done this, possibly with DC's betweek you and found it worked. Bit of background, he moved in with me and my 2 DC's a few months ago. I have since found out he is on a bit of a financial mess and couldn't afford to pay me the tax credit I lose by being part of a 'couple' so I would be out of pocket by several hundred £'s every month.
He suggested he moves out to sort out his finances but I am now starting to think that maybe 2 addresses would be better. I am 3 months pregnant and find it hard when his 2 DC's come at the weekend, also my DC's are starting to dread them coming over. All of this has ended up in us constantly bickering.
Really confused, should I accept I won't be as well off if he moves in for the sake of our baby or should he look into renting and still try and continue a relationship with 2 seperate households.
Thanks for reading
