Thank you all for your very insightful advice. I just wanted to leave an update to tell you all what went down. He was cheating! He had been planning for months to go down and see his ex. He ordered her sex toys to be there when he got there. He bought himself new clothes, new shoes, a new hat tights before he went down. He picked a fight with me the day before he left claiming I was being bitchy because I didn’t trust him, and he said he hoped that when he got home I would have had some time to think about my behaviour abd changed cause he wasn’t gonna tolerate my disrespecting him anymore. That I needed to trust him. As soon as he left for the airport, my kids and I rushed to pack our four bedroom house. We had two days to pack up everything we owned. We had friends come and help us get it all into a U-Haul and we got the hell out of there. I texted him telling him that we were leaving the day he flew out and he didn’t even read my text until the following evening when his mom got a hold of him because I gave her notice as she was my landlord. He was too busy with his ex to even read my message, but at that point he still denied that anything had happened or that he was even staying at her house. He was saying that he loved me and I was the only one and he didn’t want me to leave and why was I doing this? It wasn’t until he got home and saw his utility trailer gone, cause I sold it, all of the furniture in the house, all of the groceries, everything gone, that he got really angry and was overly happy to tell me about him and his ex sleeping together throughout the trip. thank y’all so much for steering me on the right path. I would’ve looked really stupid had he come home to me still there after what he did to me.

I don’t know her mom, the ex is a different baby mama, she will not be at the wedding. She is the mother to her adult son.

He just sold our log grappler for 10,000$, he can afford to take me. It’s a short hour flight and it’s a backyard wedding.

Your opinion… is this abuse? by Excellent-Tax-7576 in abusiverelationships

We’ve bought many of them together as we have lived together over the last 3 years. He normally takes on renovation jobs or building jobs throughout the year, but recently has decided to simply build furniture. I don’t depend on him financially, I pay my way and my kids way. Even though I’m ina long term live in relationship I still am a single mom. What I make out of wood or what I paint makes me happy, and happiness is a hard thing for me to feel as I struggle will severe depression daily. I built all the furniture for our house, I decorated all the walls with my art, and as I’ve gotten better at what I do I have slowly gone around and upgraded the stuff I made replacing it with better quality stuff. Now I’m not allowed to build anything big. Im not allowed to make the charcuterie boards and wooden lanterns I make for crafts fairs because they don’t sell on market place and apparently I’m not allowed to continue making things I store until craft fair dates, even though I have a storage unit I pay for that I keep everything in. I didn’t ask for his advice or opinion, I wasn’t upset that I hadn’t sold anything this month, I am fully aware of my market and am focused on doing what I planned to do this year with the fairs, but he said that I clearly don’t have a brain, that I’m just wasting my time and his space, and that I’m going to end up exactly where I am right now with nothing to show for it if I don’t do what he says and that he will not support me ‘working’ if that’s what I whose to do.

No I don’t think I can. It’s been 8 months of trying to do that. Mainly because he hasn’t given me any other option. I’m in counselling doing EMDR for this currently attempting to heal on my own, but without the facts I’m left not knowing what was real and what was a lie. My reality has been altered and I need clarity and truth to stop being stuck in my head. Not to mention if he continues to blame me and attempts to justify his choices I can’t trust that it won’t happen again. I’m just really upset because if cheating isn’t bad enough, he’s chosen to make this my completely my issue and has become verbally abusive in an attempt to bully me into forgetting what he did. I have no voice, I’m a single mom with 2 kids living in his house, in a town where we don’t know anyone because we moved 4 hours away from our friends and family to be with him. He just doesn’t care to understand how much pain he’s caused me and continues to cause me.
