If you left your partner, where did you go?

[Helen812]

Hi, I have told my husband 2 months ago that I want to separate and no longer want to be in a romantic relationship with him.
Things are amicable currently and I am still living in the family home whilst I work out where to go. We also have a 4 year old son. The house belonged to my husband before we met and is in his sole name.
My question is if you were the one that left , where did you go? Did you private rent , stay with friends or parents or did you move into social housing?
I am feeling a bit trapped financially and decent private rents are so expensive and hard to come by. Just needing some encouragement and wanting to know how you all managed it.
Thanks

When my brother left his wife, he came to love with me. When my ex left, he refused to say where he'd gone... But eventually got a private let in a nearby town.

If you’re married then house is a shared asset. Doesn’t matter that it’s in his name.

I didn’t have children and left in a hurry so I stayed on my sister’s sofa for a couple of months while I found a place to rent.

No advise just wanted to wish you the best of luck and I hope everything works out well for you.

Joint asset. Don’t let him persuade you it’s his.

A friend of mine similar situ was ordered to pay a lot to get rid of ex. Short marriage, 1dc. His house way before wife arrived.
