DP has proven that he really doesn't give a shit about me

My partner and I have been living together for around 2 years. We have had our ups but most of it has been downs. Mainly due to the kids (we have one each and they're both living with us). Constant favouritism (probably on both sides) different ways of parenting, etc. We just argue all the time but when the kids are away, we're fine.

For this reason I suggested that myself and my DC find somewhere else to live. To cut a long story short he quickly agreed and said he'd wanted to suggest that for a while

But after discussing it we decided we would continue our relationship, just in different houses. He said he still loved me and cared about me.

So today I'm searching through the property guides and text him at work to say it may take longer than we thought as there was nothing available. He immediately text back asking me to try EVERWHERE and not give up. He may as well have just said "I don't want to be stuck with you any longer".

So I phoned one place up who said they had a house down a NOTORIOUSLY bad street, known for shootings, murders, drug wars etc. I laughed when I told DP who thought about it and said "its not that bad down there". so I said "so you'd be willing to see me and DD move down there then???" and he replied "well it can't be any worse than where you lived before you met me".

He just doesn't give a shit does he? At the same time he's saying he wants me to leave the wardrobe, the living room cabinet, the washing machine - he'll also be left with the full fitted kitchen, a sofa, the TV, the bed - and he's fine with that despite knowing that I gave up EVERYTHING I owned to move in with him and he'd be fine with me moving out with fuck all.

At the same time he's saying "don't speak about it as if we're splitting up, we're not, we can still go on holidays and see each other at weekends etc"

Am I right in assuming he doesn't give a flying fuck about me, he just wants a weekend shag buddy to stop him getting bored when he's got nothing else to do???

I'm really upset about this tbh. More than I'm letting on.

I think you should find somewhere to live asap and not tell him about it. Take few days off work and arrange the move while he is at work, then just take what you need (bed, mattress, basics etc) and half of what you bought together. Then leave a note without a forwarding address saying that you met someone else/don't find him attractive anymore/have gone off him and just disappear.
