Unhappy

I’m really unhappy in my relationship, a couple of weeks ago I got called manipulative because I offered to look after his sisters kid as she was struggling and because me and his sister don’t get on, he called me manipulative for offering.
He thinks so badly of me all the time, no matter what I do it’s wrong, whatever I say it’s wrong.
I try to tell him how I feel and he just shouts and leaves the room.
He left me for another women a couple of years ago and I forgave him and took him back because he makes my life a lot more difficult if I’m not with him.
I feel so unhappy and trapped, I’m always on edge and feel ill with it all.
I can’t really see a way out of it, our son always sides with him and I feel like I’m losing him.
Anyone else feel like they are trapped?

Why are you trapped
What’s stopping you leaving ?

Another trapped person here. I've started therapy to try to gather the strength to leave. Would that be financially possible for you? I definitely feel like I'm very slowly edging towards the decision of leaving.

My dh says I can't leave because it would mess the kids up. He also says he wouldn't be able to cope as he hadn't got any friends or anyone to talk to. He's also saying he'd rather kill himself than ever wake up in a house without the kids. He's saying he's happy to live with me as friends but that he will not split the care of children between us as he can't bear the thought of being away from them even for a day.

I stay for my son as I know he will turn him against me and when we are not together he is even more vile towards me so it’s easier to stay

Sorry to hear about the situation you are in, he sounds manipulative to keep you there so he can stay with the kids, I feel for you as that must make you feel so undervalued, you deserve more than to feel like that.
