I'm not going to make a book of it, but my partner and I are splitting up at the moment. Its a bit tough considering the children and all, but I feel surprisingly at ease.

If anyone is going through anything like that right now I would welcome comparing of notes, so to speak.

I already have divorced, with children involved. Sounds like you feel you are making the right decision for yourself and your family.

Will to chat about it, the ups and downs. And how the children cope, as well.

I'm not sure what I'm feeling, I love my lady, but I crave being alone, but I am going to feel so bad for my son, he has just grown accustomed to having me around....
We will be living together until I am able to afford my own place, furniture etc.
Awkward.

Even though she knows I am moving out, she insists that I sleep next to her at night.

How do you know with absolute certainty that you are doing the right thing???

For me, it's tough to think in absolutes. Yet, it's doing the right thing, when you've considered all the variables, weighed the pros and cons. Perhaps even putting together a list, in order to 'weight it'.

Keeping the lines of communication with your child(ren) open, is what helps everyone involved. Being honest with them, is a positive thing.
