Yes, I have an oppurtunity to move out of Orlando in about a year. Either Chicago or New York. Or I may stay here. I won't know until April. Having a girlfirend is not in my best interest right now, but that really has nothing to do with the way I feel about her, atleast not consciously.

No, this has nothing do with another girl. In fact, I plan on taking a few months of from any kind of dating to focus on my career and myself after this is all over.

I think that covers everything.
January????????

In a way this may be a "sweet" thing to do. Don't destroy someone's holidays but if you have to be Mr. Nice & Wonderfully Conscientious, don't act like you love her either.

Don't get her anything spectacular or expensive for Christmas as that may get her hopes up. Don;t fake the romance or being in love with her, but treat her as a good friend.

So, is there a reason why you revived an almost 10-yr-old thread, other than to tell us about your boobs and booty? (You didn't ask for advice.)

Your situation sounds more serious than the OP's. He sounds potentially abusive, and if you stuck around for 8 more months just because of a lease, you might find out how abusive. You should find a way to bail. How long did you know this guy before you decided to move in with him?

Any lease can be broken if you pay 3 months worth of rent at once and then roll.

If someone can't afford that then they couldn't afford to be in a relationship to begin with.

Relationships are expensive. At least for the person that is invested in one. Anyone else is just a user.

^^^this^^^ In the worst case scenario that should suffice... read the lease agreement carefully and you will find the specifics you are seeking regarding ending the lease early. Speaking to the landlord about your options may be very helpful as well.

I am going through the same thing and the point is the relationship just isn't working out. Neither of us are happy and I'm in the first two months of a year long lease. I would prefer to stay and him to move but he is stubborn saying "if i can't stay than none one is" I feel like he's just screwing the landlord by doing this. I began packing my things and he begged me to stay after breaking up with me and I just don't want to deal with this anymore. I have a 4 year old daughter who needs stability and i don't want to live on eggshells. I felt like it was a bad idea to move in to begin with but I was in a bad predicament (I had 2 weeks to find a new place to live- my old roommate renewed our lease with someone else without telling me) and even though i told him i wasn't ready to move in, begged me to sign a lease with him and I was impulsive and inconsiderate and just went with it. I'm afraid to tell him hope i feel I'm scared of his reaction, last time we had this talk, he threatened to move all my stuff out while I was at work. I don't know what to do. I've already talked to my parents about moving in and my friend who works for a moving company. I've never left a lease before and I don't know what to tell the landlord. This whole thing is a disaster and I'm scared.

You find a subletter for the entire place and you both move out.
