Hi we've been together 15 years and have two kids 10 & 12. Things were never right when first child came and he was not really interested in kids and never helped me. He believes he earns the money and I stay at home. He's been stressed alot during the years I've been with him and I've had to walk on egg shells for years, with his moods and tempers. We lived in SW but he's from NE. After a bad business deal I agreed we would leave and be with his family in NE (hoping things would change, after he made promises about spending more time with us etc). Long story short, 3 years on I am terribly homesick and miss my family, his mum has not really made any effort with me or kids only interested in her son and I'm thinking about divorce which he knows, and is trying to put fear of God into me about how little money we would have and worst of all I feel guilty to leave because kids are reasonably happy in school and it would mean 350 miles for my husband to travel to see them and i think he's being saying things to my eldest about "not leaving dad". He's suddenly making an effort with them as well! I don't speak to his mum now either. I hate it up here I feel lonely and depressed. Am I being selfish!
