So, I don't love dp anymore, have no feelings for him. Been together 17 years with 2 DS.
However, telling him I want us to separate is very difficult as his Mum is dying. She has cancer and has been in and out of hospital for months now. Stupidly I've been putting it off because of this but my life just feels so unbearable at the moment. He's not abusive (although sometimes emotionally) but he's just not an easy person to live with. And becoming more so as the years progress.
He;s just found out the cancer has spread and she is now getting home, with lots of modifications being made to his parents home to accommodate this. It actually sounds like she is coming home 'to die'.
How the hell can I tell him now? I feel so trapped (and guilty that I selfishly feel this way). Do I hang on or tell him now before things get even worse? I have absolutely no idea how much longer she has.
I feel like a total cow.
