Came home today to find my partner of 5years living for 2years has packed a bag & is staying over at friends house .
He gave me the decency by texting after he had left to say he'd contact me in a couple of days .Wtf? am I supposed to do with that information.I haven't replied, but don't know what to do or make if it .
Think I'm in shock .No huge back story leading up to this .He is a very emotional guy though .

Don’t let him put you through it. He’s made his choice so let him stick to it.

Don’t let him back in

Find something who won’t leave you on a whim

^^ All easier said than done though isnt it it.

How are you feeling right now OP? Have you got friends and family round you for support Flowers

@TheresGotToBeMoreToLife .
Thank you for your kind words .The way I feel at the moment it wouldn't take much for me to loose my mind .There's part of me that knows what he's done is so cruel & I'm better of without him, but (always a but) .I know he's going through a tough time at the moment & everything was getting on top of him .So I guess he just wanted time out .

I understand completely.

By chance I saw a video on facebook that I think might be interesting for you to watch. It's about coming to terms with the end of relationship. I'm at work now but will try to find the link tonight and send to you.

Keep your chin up

Again thank you .I'll await for the facebook link later .By then I'll be going to need it .

This is just so awful for you. Happened to me but didn't get a nice text saying he would be in contact..he just left. You are going to grieve for a while but do not sit there and wait for him. Take this as he has left for good so you can focus on you, your mental health (as this stuff really screws with your self esteem) and bit by bit move on. You will be in shock for a while but leave him completely alone. You will have a ton of questions but dont ask them as he may not have the answers if he is going through a crisis. This is so horrible for you.

@litterbird.Thank you for responding.
I am so sorry this happened to you .It's awful isn't it .You mentioned the text I received.Do you think that might give me hope we can sort things out?
I know I'm clutching.It's just I can't believe we're over .
As yet I have made no contact with him .

I cant find the direct link but search Matthew Hussey on Facebook. He has some great guidance videos on how to handle being on the position you're in
