Never been so unhappy in all my life. Bit of background. Been with partner 11 years. 2 kids. 3 and almost 1. I've worked since I've been able to (leaving college) partner has been in and out of jobs and never really had a stable one. The only time I've ever had off work was for mat leave. Second baby come along and I went back to work after 6 months. We decided that he could stay at home and look after the kids. 3 year old
Is in pre-school. I work my arse off each month so we have abit of spare money to do something with the kids but he sees it as extra beer money or takeaway money. He does frig all round the house, I spend my days off gutting the house. I have Mum guilt as it is. I'm just starting to really resent him being at home now. God forbid I mention him getting a job.. all the excuses come out then! I'm just so fed up of living a life I didn't really ever see myself living!

IMO a relationship is only worth being in if they make you happy more often than they make you unhappy. It doesn't sound like this is the case for you.

Life is too short to be an unhappy relationship, but I realise that it's not simple to leave the father of your children.
