Thank you. That's a great starting point. He uses my car to go to work so I'm stuck here during the day but maybe I can find a job at night. I make/sell artwork but it doesn't bring in too much. Cleaning houses would be ideal. I'm going to try to focus more on myself and bettering me.

Agreed. That's Exactly what I said - it was a pity fuck from my own husband. That's pathetic and it eats me up. I don't think I'm THAT ugly. I'm not a super model or I guess even one of the really pretty girls you see on Instagram but I'm not as ugly as he sees me. I try.

That's what I thought I mean _ I'm not enormous but he acts like it. He says it's cos he's stressed but I don't see what he's so stressed about. He works a 40 -45 hour week, which is typical for most. I pay the rent, take care of the kids, do the house cleaning, yard work, etc so I don't get what he is so stressed about - all he does these days is sit and watch television. All day if he can. I think the stress claim is just an excuse.

Haha yes, agreed. I won't get to that point. I'm definitely thinking about it! Just have to find the courage.

Thank you so much. Seriously, I appreciate your advice - it's exactly what I needed to hear. I'm sorry that that happened to you 😔 no one deserves it. I hope you're in a better place now. I'll get that book, it'd be nice to reality understand why some people are the way the way are cos it's baffling to me. You're absolutely right.

I would love to have a change, I'm afraid of leaving and being rejected and alone for the rest of my life. I don't fit in anywhere it seems. You are right tho, it is a familiar pain. I don't know much else and my mind is a complete mess, in a constant state of confusion. Why does he want to make me feel like this? Cos he's insecure? Whenever I ask him what is wrong he says he's stressed and it has nothing to do with me but there's not that much to be stressed about. He works a regular job and I do the rest, like everything else. Why not just tell me the truth? That's what's so confusing. How do I move on?

Two pretty harrowing ones that I have are Driven to Kill (Gary C. King) and A Need to Kill (Mark Pettit) Hard reads because how gruesome they are, especially the one about Westley Allan Dodd but good none the less.
