Dp moved out late last year, it really didn't work out (big family issues), so he came back temporarily just before christmas.
I have felt quite depressed since he came back, as I was really enjoying having my independence and own space again.
I did really struggle financially when he was gone and he was able to help me out when I needed it as it was family he was staying with.
I was getting really pissed off and depressed with him being here, so he basically had to go down the homeless route for accomodation. He's had an offer of temporary accomodation, until he gets permanent from the council and he's moving out over the weekend.
The last time, it took me the couple of months to start really feeling ok and enjoy being on my own again.
I am really not looking forward to this and am worried about money as well, as he will not be able to help as the rent is so high on the temp accomodation.
I know that 'eventually' it will be ok and this is definetly the right way to go, but right now I just feel sick to my stomach Sad

It's all going to be okay. Smile

Yep. It is all going to be ok.

Sorry you have effectively had a false start - and now back to where you were, but you know it is the right thing by the sounds of it, and you may well recover quicker this time. :)

And tomorrow - wear best clothes (and underwear). Really fucking look like the bees knees. Do anything that makes you feel good. Fill up at least 3 bags of stuff for a charity shop. Have a good clear out. Anything you don't need any more. Write a list of positive steps you can take to move forward.

Do you get tax credits? I am actually better off since I kicked out my DP; the money thing may not be as bad as you think.

Yes, it will be MORE than okay. Get through this bit and it will be bloody great - promise :)

Went with him to see the temp accomodation, it stank to high heaven so they said new carpets, suite and new bedding would all be put in during the week, so said he can stay till then.
Rent is £265 a WEEK and it is a shit hole in one of the worst streets in the town. They said that they will be able to reduce this drastically through 'discrimatory housing benefit' otherwise he won't be able to afford it.
Just a nightmare just now, still meant to be together and just feeling quite depressed about it all and really sorry for him.
