Hello, I’ve been with my partner for almost 10 years. We have a 3 year old and an almost 2 year old. We’ve been having more rough patches than good patches lately. Sleep deprivation is a killer and resentment is building on both sides. Neither of us seem happy. I said I want to work on it. He said he needs space to think about what he wants. I’m in the very real situation of him possibly ending things.
I have autism, I currently don’t work and stay at home with my kids. I rely on my partner for things such as making food, going out, taking meds etc, I honestly don’t think I could live fully independently. I’m worried I’ll have to call adult social services for help if he does leave. I have a mum but we wouldn’t be able to move into her house as she already has a lodger.
we own our home equally. He says he’ll help financially if it comes to it but I’m honestly terrified of what to do. I have autism, I had a breakdown 3 years ago and ended up in a psychiatric ward. I don’t know what to do. Does anyone have any advice?
