If he is unwilling, go yourself. Get support and a broader perspective on your situation. Then when you make a decision it will be based on more information and options. If there is abuse going on, safety is the main concern. I don't know where you are located to give you any referals.

I hope you will understand when I leave him. I have been staying all these years for the kids' protection, but my kids are now wanting/asking me to divorce and questioning why I stay, and are not happy at home when he is home. He is extremely self-absorbed and selfish, and won't take any responsibility for anything, blaming his shortcomings on other people (me), things. I know you are only hearing my side and I understand. I have never been more scared yet more sure of the decisions I will need to make. Mainly because his actions have negatively affected the kids. It is all very complicated but I am dying inside and I just need to live fully and not half a life...please, any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. I think what you do for broken home families is important.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
