Give your partner time to think

You’re not going to make all the moving-out decisions in one week, let alone one hour. After having the breakup talk, drop in the inevitable, “And we need to talk about the apartment…” line. But, leave it at that. Tell your partner he can take time to think. Offer to stay at a friend’s for the night so he has space to process emotions and make room for logical thought.
