So I told DH it was over and I wanted him to leave after our family holiday. We talked about how our relationship is unbalanced and unfair and neither of us is happy. I thought it went well. Except, fast forward past the holiday and he doesn't think we should separate. I said tough, we're past negotiating and I'm done. He said we should go to couples therapy, he wasn't ready to just leave, he needed closure, he thought we could make it work etc. I agreed to therapy and told him to organise it. Another week goes by. Has he booked anything? No. He has made enquiries. I said I wasnt just going to change my mind. He said he was trying to be a better person, take on more chores, help me out more, has bought me presents etc. I said it's too late and I know he isn't going to keep it up, he has done this before.

How do I make him leave without packing up his things and throwing him out?

I can't leave, property related, I feel so trapped. He can go to his mother's, but won't. He says a friend of his told him not to leave to trial separation as I'd just enjoy myself and wouldn't let him back in, well yes!! Ffs.

I know we could do this in a friendly manner. We have young children. I want to be amicable. But he's making it so hard!!

Hello perhaps you should arrange the couples therapy? Have you raised the issues lots of times before with him and there has been no change
