Hello - things have been coming to a head for a long while now, and the inevitable is approaching fast. I want to be prepared, and have no idea how financially I will cope. I used to have a a good job in medical sales travelling all over the place, so I can't really go back into that. Have a 1yo and 3yo. My husband has told me if we separate he will leave his job so he won't have to pay me anything (he has handed in his notice and leaves in december) we are 20k in debt, and have no way of paying it back apart from selling the house which we would do i suppose. At the mo I don't qualify for any benefits as he earns over a certain amount. I have nothing, and will get nothing how would I put a deposit on a rental property? Would I get financial help as a single mum? I feel so sad for my children:( I know my OH will make things hard for me, and be an utter shit. Like other posts on mn, i feel such a failure and am so scared about the future. He seems to be quite looking forward to pissing off and finding a younger girl to start afresh with (he's 45, i'm 39). Should never have married him:(
