I'm pretty sad right now, I get up at 6.30 to go to work before DD wakes up and i have a 4 hour commute each day - an 8 hour day in the office with a max of 30 minutes break. So home, dd to bath/bed, house admin, tidying, dinner cooked and next thing it's 9,30 and i'm worn out, no time ever for gym/yoga/friends - weekends are spent doing housework and looking after DD, no family or anyone to babysit so no nights out or anything. TBH I want to spend weekends making up to DD for the time i'm not there during the week.
I feel so gutted that if i'm lucky mon-fri i see DD for a max of 30 minutes, OH say's i have no choice that i have to pay for 50% of the mortgage and bills (we earn around the same but he works locally).
The house isn't in my name at all but i paid 25% of the deposit and, as i said half of the bills - OH say's that legally i am liable for the house even though it isn't in my name - he has an LLB so knows much more than i do about the Law.
I wondered if i would be better of leaving him and getting a part-time job and claiming WTC but he thinks i should be unhappy - that it's better for DD not to be shipped between two parents.
I feel like there's no love - and it kills me that i only get to spend a max of 30 minutes a day with DD to pay for a house that i don't like, don't want to live in and isn't in my name - but i don't think i have an alternative - i wish i did.
