My 9 year relationship has ended, not my choice. I am terrified to tell my parents, they live in a different country and will worry so much, I’m worried they will travel back to try and support me, but they have nowhere to stay now we are in separate rooms.
Me and my ex partner own a house which we will have to sell, I have no idea where I will live, and they really liked him. Am I overthinking their worry? Should I just tell them and deal with it? I guess telling them makes it more real, meaning I cant undo this separation.

I guess I would be more concerned about taking care of yourself and making sure you’re in a good place before you worry about how people will react…
Tell them when you are ready. It doesn’t sound like you’re ready.
I’m not sure what you stand to gain by telling them now. Maybe wait a while.
Afraid of your parents? Damn.
No need to tell them anything.
Hiding it makes it worse let it go
