    Having done this myself you have my sympathies. As a previous poster says it is almost easier to have a more in your face reason to split. I know it may be hard but can I suggest that you think very carefully b4 telling your family. That can't be taken back & as soon as they know a whole other dimension is added to your confusion. I just wish that I had given myself more breathing time to get my head around it all before everyone else started taking sides!
    Get a sofa bed/blow up bed or you'll just wake up curled around each other.
    Good luck

    I feel so sorry for you, I have to be honest I don't understand where you are coming from as I am happily married, but I do know sometimes its hard work. Are you sure it won't work?

    Really sorry to hear you are feeling so low, its always awful when a relationship ends, but you sound like you've come to this decision rationally and it should be an amicable break, which is something to be thankful for.
