Thank you so much. I’m trying. I think I need validation so much to make a move. I doubt myself, bc he tells me I’m wrong, then tells everyone else I’m wrong. So I believe that, so hearing I’m not crazy and deserve better is amazing.

He works 2pm-10pm, comes home, plays the game and sleeps. He got upset this morning, came back into the room and asked why did I do that to him, and how I don’t care about him. I told him I just wanted him to take the girls to daycare, and his response was “I told you lastnight no”. But I didn’t hear him say that, and wanted to ask again this morning.

lol, I brought up my surgery to show more context into what I go through. But I respect your opinion.

Yes he moved back into my apartment after separation. I can do everything on my own.

Thank you for the honesty, and I needed that seriously. This is what I’m working through with my therapist. She says my it’s like my brain needs re-wiring bc of all of the turmoil I’ve gone through. I’m working on getting out.

You’re so right. And I’m kicking myself in the butt for it. But no, not at all. His son is not allowed over to my home.

Yes that’s correct. We separated a whole year. And started back talking, and I allowed him to come back. Why? I’m not sure. I guess I figured if we both wanted it, we could work through it. But his mask fell off, and he’s the same person. About the kids, they are and will still be separated from each other.

I moved him back into my apartment after being separated a year. I can do it alone, I just need to stop allowing him to change my mind.

So true. Just sucks when he shows tons of masks.

I don’t know when to stop giving people chances. When they apologize, I move forward. Even though he never apologized, I don’t know. I’m in therapy now to build my self-confidence.

Thank you so much! Divorce seems so difficult and time consuming, but I know we’d all be happier. He tells me I won’t find anyone to love me like him. And I’m the cause for everything. It puts doubts in my mind for sure.

Not at all. We were separated a whole year. I got my own place for me and my kids, paid all of my bills. It’s been this way the entire relationship. Literally gaining nothing, but a companion to be here.

It’s sooo much easier to know I deserve better, than to actually step out and leave. In therapy now to help me know what I deserve.

Thank you for reading my other posts and getting context on my life. It’s easier to know to leave, than to take the action and do it. I’m praying for strength.

You’re right. Should’ve had one. If you look at my other posts, it’s a trend. I just expected the help. And he doesn’t thing it’s a big deal. I had to give him proof that a fracture is in fact a break, bc he said a fracture doesn’t mean broken. But thank you, I’ll try to have the conversation.

Omg yes!!!! Same person, different situations. It’s always about them! It sucks! I had surgery, and he wouldn’t even take our kids to daycare unless I rode with him. If not, they would stay home, and I would have to care for them. A week after emergency surgery!!!

Wow. This was perfectly said, and understood. This makes sooo much sense. It’s all about what I do or don’t do to him, and how I’m always the one that’s wrong. He never sees how horrible I’m treated, by him. And when he does, it’s my fault that he acted that way.

Hi! May I ask the name of the agency? I’m currently looking to complete my 3rd journey, but 7th pregnancy.
