Is it time to leave?

Recently me and my partner separated (although he didn't give me the space I longed for) we are now living together again but as I do love him as a dad/family I just don't want that intimacy!
I fancy other people and just feel so on edge and awkward around my partner as I feel as though he craves the intimacy from me. He has changed a lot recently regarding himself and his actions as he was quite unconsciously controlling which he had blamed on a secret alcohol problem. I put up with this for 6 years not being listened but I now feel I got to the point where I'm bored and can't see him changing his behaviour towards me (he has stopped drinking and I'm very proud of that). If I leave I have to leave our family home (he owns) but I don't have a well paid job and could not stand to move back in with parents as they would have me under lock and key! I am 25! I just need some advice or people to talk to who have been in a similar situation or understand.

You need to leave or, before you know it, you could be 35 or 42 and miserable that you’ve wasted your life in an unhappy relationship.
