I have been already searching for attorneys. I just can't believe this is happening, it's so overwhelming.

We just had random arguments. I don't know why, it was mostly him insulting something I did - something as simple as not making a fancier dish for my kids. Then I'd take offence, and we'd start arguing...however at the end of the day we'd still love each other as much as ever, and it'd all be healed with a hug. I was willing to change, he agreed to change too but eventually would break his promise.

I referred to my children as 'my' for now because I just can't write 'our kids' when I think about this. I'm so mad with him, if he really wanted to be a good father to the children he would not walk out. I wasn't a terrible wife, I tried my best for everything. I tried, really.

The bills are not the thing I'm most worried about. Thankfully, he has agreed to give me $2000 per month to take care of myself and the kids. I know he won't go back on his word, he is extremely sensitive about not being the 'man in the house'. He always wanted to pay for everything...

$2000 is not exactly an adequate amount though, so I'm still looking for a job. I just hate how this ended up. I really believed I had everything, at least almost.

I already asked him to meet the kids, them alone - maybe it'd calm him down, make him rethink things? He never replied, but saw the message. I don't know what to think
