To not tell ex where I live (yet)

Hi all.

DP and I separated last October because I couldn't live with his controlling behaviour any longer. He would set up cameras in the house and garden to watch me. Quiz me on my every move. The final straw came when he put a tracker on my car and I found out. I had to call time.

Anyway we've sold my house and I've been in my new place for 2 weeks. We have a 10yo who we now share custody of.

DP has had him this week. Due to drop him off Friday.

I've said I'll come to his place (he moved back in with his parents) to pick him up but DP is insisting me he wants to drop him off at my house once I'm finished WFH for the day. I can tell he's curious to know where I live. He's been asking questions about the area, what it's like, etc.

I don't think I want DP to know where I live yet. Its been a nice comfort him not knowing. I've felt safe and free for the first time in years. At the same time I know its not fair for him not to know where his son lives. I'll need to tell him eventually.

AIBU to keep this to myself for a bit longer?
