After reading some good life advice on here for other people, I thought I'd ask for some help with my own situation.

I'm 24, partner is 25. We have been together for 5 years, 2.5 years ago we bought a house together.

The house turned out to be a bit of a disaster, we were inexperienced and we were sold a house that appeared sound on the face of it, but actually needed every room gutted and started again. This put a lot of strain on the relationship as I got stuck into the diy and started sorting it out. I've poured my heart and soul into the house and really love it, my partner has put up with it, but doesn't like the house as much as me.

We have reached a stage where we are over the worst, we have had no help from anyone, i've bought and fixed everything myself.

My partner has had a really hard time at work recently and is depressed with it all. I got frustrated by her not being able to resolve it and snapped at her saying to get a grip and get it sorted. Ever since she has been distant with me and won't talk to me about it anymore, she is just suffering alone.

I feel like our relationship is broken now and don't know what to do. I love her, and she loves me, but I'm fed up with her being depressed all the time, while I knock my pan in working full time and sorting the house.

She only works part time

Part of me wants to look after her and another part feels like she needs to get a grip and stand on her own 2 feet in life

I'm worried that if we split up, we will have to sell the house.

We bought it for 92k and have 80k left on the mortgage. I feel it's only worth 80k now with the house price crash and it's not in move in condition due to on going diy

I could easily afford the mortgage payments on my own, the mortgage is only 300 a month and I earn 1400 after tax and have a good full time job

Do you think I should just sit it out for another week and see if things get better?

Over the last few months, sexytime has died out and this is starting to get to me.

Everything was going great before her worked turned crap. I feel like I've sacrificed my early 20s do I could reap the benefits later on in life and don't want to have your start from scratch

Getting a mortgage deposit together was really hard and I don't want to go through that again

Any advice would be great

I feel it's starting to make me feel down, is depression contagious?

If the house is worth $80k and the mortgage is worth $80k, the net asset is zero ,and you could offer to simply assume the entire mortgage without cash changing hands and take over title to the house I would think.
I am not qualified to advise you on the relationship except to say that a week or two weeks will make little difference without anyone actually discussing the issue openly.

Give her two choices - either she moves out and you take over the mortgage, or you do. If she isn't really keen on the house anyway she'll let you have it. She won't have a choice as if she only has a part time job she presumably won't be able to afford it on her own anyway. If its worth 80 and you owe 80 on it then there shouldn't be cash going in either direction.

Maybe that comes across as a bit heartless, okay it definitely does... but I'm going on the assumption if you're already posting on the internet about being fed up with her then the relationship is beyond saving.

When's the pregnancy due?

If the job that your OH is doing depresses her then she needs a new job.

Job jobbed as they say.

wot Z said.

This.

Sounds like your wrapped up in the house and your own work, if that's what you wan then fine but be clear with your lass. If you genuinely want to be with the girl make an effort, cook her a meal or something and spend some time talking to her and try to help her with her problems at work...even if you can't help I am sure listening and being supportive is going to mean a lot to her.

Can you afford to go away for a few days?
Get you both away from the house so you can relax and have time to chat about "stuff"?
