galing gives some great advice and provides some excellent insight here. I agree that, as difficult as it may be, try to lovingly explain to your H that you want to make your M work, but you need to have space right now if this is to happen. Let him know that this is a need that you really need him to meet right now, and try to reassure him that this M is what you want, but can't make it work under the present conditions.
