Hi,

Name changed for this.

So I've been with my husband for 7 years. Married for 2 in July. He's always been the sort of person to lie and I did question ever marrying him to be honest.

I found out last year that he had a credit card with £6k on. I knew he had a credit card but was under the impression it had just been paid off every month.

This weekend I saw him using a card I hadn't seen before to which I later when borrowing his wallet to go to the shop found it was another credit card. I asked him about this and this has another just under £6k on. I'm absolutely livid.

I've just started working full time to help with money and I'm so tired and stressed all the time. We have a 4yo and 1yo. I'm doing side hustles to try and help too. But feel like this has all been thrown onto me and I didn't even know about it.

We booked a holiday but I've told him to cancel it which makes me sad as my daughter was so excited.

He's always been a bit of a liar and not told the truth about things and I'm seriously questioning our marriage.

I've told him to go to his mums for a few days but he doesn't want too.

I could honestly leave him right now I'm so angry. He gets really shouty and annoyed at the kids too as a side note which I hate.

I just don't know what to do. I don't think I'm strong enough to kick him out as I feel bad and what if he did something stupid then it would be my fault.

I'm just looking for opinions as I don't want to talk to my friends about this as I'm embarrassed.

Thanks in advance xx

Shouting at young children and extortionate spending on himself secretly.

Sorry OP, sounds like you'd be better off without him.
