He says, "We're going in different directions and don't have the same life goals."

Boyfriend of 5 years breaks up with me. no other answer. I was asked to move out of our home we shared for 5 years. He turns 41 next month. I just turned 36. There were talks of marriage and future plans, but now it's over. He's made his mind and I have to abide.

He claims he wants to remain friends, but does that really ever happen?
