I have been living with my girlfriend for the past year and for reason's I won't get into I have decided this is not the path I want to go down and want to get out.
It gets more complicated because I live in her place (condo) and do not have a formal lease.
In the next couple of weeks she is going out of town to visit her parents. My thoughts are to secure a new living arrangement over the next week or so (live in a major metropolitan area so options are plentiful) and make the like Baltimore Colts and move while she is out of town, revealing the breakup upon her return. Basically all of the furniture and major items are hers so its not like she will be coming back to a half empty place.
This may seem cold and calculated but given the position I am in I don't really think breaking up with her then expecting to crash on the couch until I figure things out puts me in the best position as she could tell me to GTFO.
Figured others in the LRC may have had similar experiences so I wanted to see if there are other viable options I maybe missing.
