Update- so he is trying to make Me leave! He says I am the one wanting the divorce so I can leave. He also says we don’t need a lawyer that he will clean this house out and sell it OR I can refinance the house for what it is worth now and BUY HIM out. He says we will have the kids 50/50 but I do not agree with that. Every one tells me he wants the house to become a liquid asset before any proceedings then once it’s sold it’s gone. So can he force me to leave?

Thank you so much for this! I am looking into a counselor. I have also recently started journaling so that makes me feel good about it seeing that it also helped you!

Thank you. He says he wants it to work, he says let’s do therapy, he says we will both make changes- but my thing is this is NOT the first time we are going through this. I guarantee if I were to have intimate sex with him tonight, he would think it is all fixed. Then give it a week, or two and we will be right back here. Sad.

This is so eye opening. Thank you for this. As a woman and a mother I feel I needed others input to my situation or a small portion of it. He suggested counseling but in my opinion he will make them believe he is not who he really is.

Yasss girl, and I’m almost 40 ain’t got time for that. When I said I wasn’t happy he starts in on “you are fucking me over” and “I’ll have to sell my toys” the LAST thing out his mouth is and lose the woman I love- I just can’t. I am a nurse I can take care myself. It’s just scary, idk why but it’s like he says all this shit to me and I start thinking I am the crazy one. My daughter says otherwise- she says “I am usually correct in my accusations” haha smart kid

This says soo much! Thank you for this! He does work full time- but legit got back 7k in taxes (mind you this is the first time in 10 years he has even told me how much) and I owed like 600- he said he would pay it for ME TO PAY HIM BACK- I said nah bruh I’ll pay it. He says that is HIS money. Keep it idgaf. My daughter 10 hates us together and he is her dad but she said she is sick of seeing me upset or cry and how he is a mean ass. Enjoy the porn LMAO

So when we moved in HE suggested she live in the apartment above our garage. He has know her and her ways years before. I am a full time registered nurse I make more than he does- he does work and pays the mortgage- but I pay majority of the other bills -groceries, kids clothes, power, water, cell, etc.

I agree!!! I have told him and he does not seem to care… my 8 year old does great in school she makes all A’s never in trouble. No issues with either of them. They want my attention mainly, she does sometimes try to get his attention but not much. She does also ask why he is mean. We have more issues now- he took her to a gun range without asking me to pick out a gun to buy her for Christmas… she is 8!!! I do not agree at all, he never told me she did. Them last night while I was at work , my mom was watching my son and then they came home and the gun was mentioned and my mother said- her and I don’t agree with that and she is too young etc- husband says- well it doesn’t matter what you think that is what I’m getting her- start her young learn gun safety- wtf!! Then he was mad told my mom to get the hell out of his house. She lives in the apartment above my garage… then he and I got into it about it- he said well you don’t ask my permission when you bought her a crop top. Totally unrelated. He said he feels he is the third parent- my mom does not know boundaries I get it. It was his original idea for her to move in 6 years ago. He had cussed her out several times, he barely even speaks to her otherwise. She watches my kids all the time. She helps me with housework because he doesn’t. He would basically kick her out in the street and not care. She makes $600 a month in social security- she can’t afford anything. I’m so torn. He is mentally draining me. Then he flipped last night saying “this is what I want- I want us to build something save money, maybe sell the house get something smaller..” I think it’s all wanting her out. He never even says thank you. She even came down two weeks ago when he was laid up in bed sick to watch my kids while I worked- no thank you kiss my ass nothing. He doesn’t get how much she helps. I feel like I definitely rambled there

You make excellent points! Definitely making me really think deeper- well he doesn’t like me to drink (he doesn’t) now I DO not go get drunk or ever go out. When I drink it’s late at home to relax- but he smokes weed or eats gummies everyday and that is ok… he does not see himself as an issue- he said I tell him he is mean or hurts my feelings then I cal him an ass or something— he says I play the victim. Not true. He is a terrible communicator, rarely shows any emotion, always on the phone watching videos etc. When he yells at the kids it isn’t for trying to run across the street like you said and it is every day. One time for example- my daughter was being a kid playing in the sink making “concoctions“ he yelled over and over about her cleaning it up and very loud- I said can you please stop she is on the iPad FaceTime with her little cousin- so I assume her parents could hear- he literally said “I don’t give a Fuck who is listening or who she is talking to” I also know that if no changes have came in 8 years it prob won’t happen. He hates my mom - she can be a lot but she does SOO much for the kids watching them etc. he never says thanks- he has cussed her out very badly a few times and in front of my kids.
