I’m not happy with my baby’s dad

Guys my life is in absolute pieces. I need some help/advice/words of encouragement.

I’ve not been happy with my boyfriend for a long time, perhaps just a little under a year. It started gradually and I’ve bottled it up and put it down to hormones (we have a 16 month of daughter together) but over the last couple of months it is becoming more and more apparent to me that I’m not happy and I’m not going to be with him forever. I don’t see a future. He wants to try for more kids but I’ve been putting it off because of these feelings.

It all came out last night that I’m not happy. He’s at work now and has been crying all day. He’s absolutely torn apart over this. He’s lovely and I do love him, but I’m not IN love with him, I haven’t been for a long time. Everything feels like a mess but I know I’m doing the right thing.

The thing is we both live at my parents together, he has nowhere to go and neither do I. I know I can apply for housing and get housed pretty quickly with my daughter. I guess I just want this all to blow over. We’ve been together for 5 years and he really loves me, I feel like such a horrible bitch.

Anyone else been in this situation? I’m scared to be honest, but I know I have to soldier on. I guess I needed to rant a little more than anything.

Sorry to ramble about my shitty life.
