I have read this thread over several days and it seems that your thoughts are stuck on all the horrendous things he has done to you and how he is mistreating his precious child...
I have an idea..I feel if you will start actually visualising your families' life without him in it and how wonderful and FREE you will feel, you will see this situation from a different perspective. This is what all the PP who have taken the time to write are picturing for you. You have so many choices right now. Especially since he lives in your house. You can now have your home the way you like it by acquiring new furnishings piece by piece that will have positive energy attached to it because you chose it and love it.
You sound like a very kind person and really deserve to be treated well by a mate....visualise what your future is going to look like without your OH in it...no more verbal abuse and you can get on with your life in a brilliant way...your DDs will be so much happier without this upheaval in their lives...you will have PEACE in your life so you can concentrate on your little family without the unexpected interruptions of life that PD brings with him occupying not only your physical space but also your mental and emotional space...this is WHY you don't know what to do...he has taken over your sense of self and is destroying it bit by bit. OP, you are strong and have it in you to stop this merry-go-round in your families' lives.
You've just ÀLLOWED him to possess you....he really isn't at fault...as they say, "you teach people how to treat you" by allowing their behaviour to continue...So,OP,
GOOD NEWS!!! A bright future awaits you...
You are RELEASED from this way of life. You no longer have to have this person in your life who drains every bit of energy that you have. People are either faucets(they give energy when they are around you) or they are drains( they suck the very life nd energy out of people)His life is what he created, so he will have to deal with that, not you, because as you have seen, YOU CAN'T change HIM.
Think about how light you will feel when he is gone...the only hole he will leave in your life will quickly be filled with overflowing positive things....
I am very excited for your brilliant future, but you have to claim it.
Whether you choose to have another DP in your life is your decision...my mum once told me..." Sweetpea, you can't find Mr.Right until you get rid of Mr. Wrong!"
So start this minute by closing your eyes and picturing that super fun, exciting, positive life you will have when you take control of your own life.
You can do this! One step at a time...visualise it first so your mind will know what lies ahead.
