Husband has mentioned this week that X and Y are off work isolating, Z has been ill with covid etc. I don't really listen as our marriage is in tatters. He had a shower earlier ready to go out, mentioned that he thought his new aftershave was fake as it smelt of nothing. I was choking on it. Something clicked, I asked him to do an LFT. He did one, it was super positive instantly. He claimed he'd done it wrong. Repeated the test, very faint line ( I didn't watch him do the cotton bud but suspect he only did it slightly to try and make it negative) he's still saying the test was wrong and he has gone out.
He says restrictions have ended, its only a cold, he hasn't coughed, not feeling ill, hes been double jabbed etc etc. Complete denial.
We sleep in separate rooms, don't spend time together. Children are sleeping out and have been since Wednesday.
I don't know what to do.
I cant force him to follow the rules. I have nowhere to go to isolate away from him. I don't know what to do about the children. I don't want to bring them back into a house with a case when they have not previously been exposed but I can't expect anybody to have them for 10 days. I'm so mad.
I know I need to ultimately LTB and that is the long term plan but he is putting me in an awful position here. Don't jump on me, I can't think straight. I don't know what to do. He's almost convincing me that he's right and we ignore it. Said none of it would apply usually and I'm being dramatic.
