What do I do?
I have been with my partner for 2 years. He works away for most of the year.
He took a job 20km away from us to be closer to us, but quit last week.
Without talking to me he took another job 400km away knowing I didn’t want him up there. He drinks a lot every night. My parents and friends don’t like him. I don’t like going to social events with him as he gets drunk and it’s embarrassing.
I have 2 kids to think about and I just don’t want them growing up with that around.
He doesn’t like talking about his feelings and really crappy with money.
He proposed last year, a month after me telling him I didn’t want to get married or have another child.
I don’t want to be with him but just don’t know how to say it.
I feel like we moved way to quick. And my house is just a place to sleep when he isn’t at work.
What do I do.

You break up with him!
Do you really want to live the rest of your life like this? Just tell him you want to end the relationship. If you need a support person there to support you, then I’m sure your friends and family would love to help you.
So you just tell him you are not working out and you don't want a relationship any more. You don't need a reason but I must say you guys have only been together 2 years and you really shouldn't have a say in where he works especially if you don't have kids together. It's also not up to your parents or friends to like him, it's your relationship not theirs. I know it's not good advice for this relationship since you're ending it but something to keep in mind in the future. Sometimes what people see is a very tiny picture and make their assumptions off that without knowing the full picture.
Kerb kick IT and move on. What you waiting for?
Your doubting yourself which is a red flag to me. What is it that is stopping you? Are you scared of his reaction?? Or worried about him? This isn't his life lovely, it's yours and you only have one. Be strong and push through telling him what you need to say x
