Hi long story do will be brief. Me and partner together 35 years . He moved out 7 years ago after we were at a party and I caught him cuddling my cousin. I didn’t look innocent and we had troubles before but that was the final straw Yes I know. Never trust him again,
in the meantime I have had two bereavements which had really effected me and he has been there.
The relationship is we are still doing lots together but he moans about money doesn’t want to do anything. I feel my life is slipping away . We have children but there are older.
i think I have come to the point I want to finish .i feel we are together because we can’t be bothered to find anyone else. Any advice he can be really mean. My self esteem is really low

Did he move back in after he moved out? Why?

It sounds like your choices are - stay together and be miserable until you die, or separate for good and build a new life for yourself. Not easy, but better than sticking with misery.

He moved out 7 years ago, has he moved back in? You don't have to stay with him if you're unhappy, personally I'd rather be single than be in a miserable relationship. What do you want for the rest of your life? Do you have hobbies, friends, interests that you find fulfilling?
