Splitting Up - daughter, oh, what a mess

I was hoping for some advice. I don't know where to start.

I live with my partner and we have been together 4 years. I want to split up but he makes me think I am being unreasonable.

I have a son and a daughter ( not his ) he is generally good with them and gets on well with my son. He seems to think my daughter manipulates me and tells us all this. We had a huge row last night where he got my son on side and told my DD this situation is all her fault, she is a bully etc. To me she is a normal 13 year old - he tells me I can't see it.

He is now saying he won't leave unless I give him some money. To be fair he pays rent and I can give him this months back and I stupidly said I would give him more just to get rid of him. He is now saying if I pay it he is gone....and won't take any less. Half of me thinks just to do it to get rid of him ( he has no money of his own) and half of me thinks not.

I feel so confused if he does have a point about my daughter, but surely as an adult he souldn't be saying those things to her ( even if they do have an element of truth).

Don't forget to remind your son that this man he is standing up for left him just for some money. He is no friend of your sons' and doesn't have his best interest in his heart. Your son needs to understand that

Funny he needed money from you to pay for accommodation but has ended up at a friend's. I bet he's told them you've left him penniless.
Beware of when he runs out of money. He might suddenly be back on the scene, nice to you, apologetic about your DD. Don't fall for it. x
