LIVING IN OR LEAVING

Living together can be a beautiful journey, but what happens when the path takes an unexpected turn? Exiting a live-in relationship that's not working can be challenging, but it might be essential for your emotional wellbeing. Whether the decision stems from irreconcilable differences or a need for personal space, here's how you can come out of a live-in relationship more gracefully.

FEEL YOUR FEELINGS

Before taking any big steps, it's crucial to evaluate your emotions and the reasons behind the potential decision. Are there specific issues that can be resolved through communication and compromise? If so, it might be worth exploring ways to salvage the relationship while living separately for a while.

COMMUNICATE

Once you've introspected, open up in a candid conversation with your partner. Share your feelings, concerns, and the reasons behind wanting to end the live-in arrangement. Honest communication can pave the way for mutual understanding and potentially lead to finding solutions together.
