On Thursday last week, I told my fiancé (who I've been with for more than 5 years) that I didn't want to be with him anymore. I've been very unhappy for a while and I found some things on his phone that I didn't particularly want to see. We have been living together for three years and also have a 3 year old son which complicates the situation.
Anyway, today he moved all of his things out of the apartment and I'm absolutely heartbroken. I know that I wasn't happy anymore, but I keep thinking about all the things we've done together and how on Sundays we usually have a movie night, etc.. it's just bringing back lots of memories and makes me sad. It doesn't help we've worked out an agreement when he will have our son and tomorrow is the first night my son will be away from me and staying with his dad. I'm so unbelievably sad. I feel a bit guilty but I don't think I regret breaking up with him like I said because I've been unhappy for so long.
Is this normal?

hi amy its normal after five years you become best friends as well as lovers but amy hun think why you broke up? It must be something massive ? So to protect your self dont slate him to child but it dont stop you moving on the world is full of ppl and as my nan used to say there is a lid for every pot !x so baby steps start by thinking about you and not a couple what did you like doing before you met him amy time to get you back .ok so join classess make new ppl outside your area open your mind hang in there amy it will get better when tempted to go back remember why you broke up cos it would niggle at you and you would break up again stay strong xx
