DH is really determined we stay together and won't allow us to split. I'm 50-50 anyway as I would struggle to bring up 2 kids alone. No family to help.
He's great at helping and does all the shopping, cooking and driving. I tend to do kids, washing and cleaning. We both work and earn roughly the same.
He's got very secretive with money, we used to go through spending together to even out who's spent what now for about a year he won't do that ever or have a joint account. I don't think particularly I'm losing out but just weird he's stopped.
We don't sleep together and haven't for a year or so. He would hurt me a bit then laugh when I told him. He wouldn't agree to me leaving so I moved to a different room.
He's told me he's going away this half term for work though strangely wouldn't tell me where and said we should go away. He said kids and I should go to different location to him. Thought he meant he would pay for us but no. All very strange.
Won't let me have any of his e-mail passwords but used to insist on mine. I've changed them now. He's adamant he's not having an affair and its plausible he's not though am not 100 percent. To be honest I don't care that much.
I don't understand why he keeps insisting we stay together when it is so obviously over. I don't mind living like this but its weird. He doesn't seem able to cope at the thought of splitting saying he will commit suicide.
I don't even know what I'm asking but the weirdness is getting to me. I'm very anxious and too scared to go it alone. We are happy quite a bit of the time, lovely holidays etc but he seems to be playing happy families when we aren't.
