I've been with my dp for almost 3 years but want to end it.
This might sound simple but I keep having cold feet and don't know what to do.
I've been through a very difficult time recently ( made redundant, sudden death of parent, difficulties with money) and left the house we were sharing, went back to my place. Originally I said it was over but then we carried on seeing each other.
Dp has many good points ( generous, kind, hard working, good looking, great with my DS) but I have always felt that 'something' missing and sometimes find myself irrationally irritated by him. Right from the start my gut instinct said it was wrong. So I know it MUST end.
But after everything awful that's happened in last six months don't feel able to do it. I've tried a few times and he always says I am making the wrong decision and I feel so guilty I go back. I have few friends in my area and no family and bizarrely feel so lonely without him. Anyone been in this cycle? How did you get out?
