If you already know that you want to leave him, it sounds like there's only one option. Take as much time as you need to think about it, since as you mentioned there may be some big consequences.

ReplyIf your reasons for leaving outweighs the reasons for staying then you have to go. But make sure it is a decision you are 100% sure of doing. It is difficult to deal with regrets but if you think this is for your betterment then pursue it. By making yourself better, you attract better.
ReplyMy advice is first determine why you are unhappy. Once you have that figured, what needs to change and have an honest conversation, you have nothing to lose but the relationship you about to give up.. so where's the harm? Another option is apply for legal status (immigrant) all on your own (assuming your relationship is all that is allowing you to live there). The 3rd option is agree to 'split' but keep legal appearances.. call it an 'open relationship' and you get to stay and move on.
ReplyYou could always live with your friends... Is he violent?
