Tonight my husband shouted at me for sitting down to drink a cup of tea after I had finished tidying up the tea things . I was also shouted at for hanging clothes on the radiator the wrong way and for not having enough food in the house. Tonight I have been called fucking useless, and told to get to fuck.
I have two kids, 5 and 2. I am a sahm. We own another two properties which we rent and the one we live in is currently a building site. He is doing it up. It was my childhood home. I don't care about the other two, he can have them. I just want this one.
I am worried about money. I did the benefits calculator and the child maintenance one and it isn't a lot. I have health problems and am worried about being forced into some shitty job. I also have a son with particular needs and I need to be around for him. I don't think they are 'big' enough to be recognised though.
Where do I start? What do I say to him? He will be going out of the country for 12 days later this month. Should I use that time to get organised? Or am I stalling?
I feel sick. He does everything. All the DIY. the cars, the money. But I feel like shit and I don't want to spend the rest of my life being afraid of his moods or being spoken to the way he speaks to me.
