Constantly promises he's on his way home on the phone to me, only to turn up stinking drunk hours later. Most often around 1am, sometimes as late as 3am.
This happens maybe 3-4 times a week, always on a week night after work.
I work full time, look after our 2 year old and am almost 9 months pregnant.
Does this sound like he's cheating or maybe a drinking problem?
He's not secretive of his phone or emails, is happy to let me look through them both. i've openly asked him a million times and he denies it, but I don't know what to do a at my wits ends.
We row, have awful awful rows where we say disgusting things to each other, I'm usually crumpled in a heap crying hysterically, the next day he's sorry will never do it again, but by the end of the week he's back to lying and staying out all night til the early hours.
I take care of everything - finances, parenting, every single piece of responsibility I look after. I'm falling apart here doing everything and being constantly let down and lied too.
We can't afford couples counselling and don't know how to fix this.
We love each other and we're both so sad the next day, he's always sorry and hates himself for doing this, but can't seem to stop.
An advice is welcome.
