Breakdown of relationship when pregnant

[TinyTinkerbelle]

I am currently 8 months pregnant and me and my partner of nine years have split. For the last 8 months we were (from my perspective) happy. We had got a house, the deposit had been paid and we had all the furniture ready to move from our rented flat. We were playing board games, going for walks, laughing alot and planning our future together. That was until last Thursday when he stated we didn't have deposit in full, I found out he had stolen my £3000 for deposit plus more I gave him for baby supplies. He stated he was not happy and his work hadn't been paying him full wages and the bill's had gone up putting him in debt (I paid all bill's, he paid weekly expenses) he has been diagnosed with depression and stated he wanted us to break up so he could get his head striaght, I have had depression for about 10 years so appreciate the mental illness. I am heartbroken as I still love him and it seems so cruel that all my dreams have been squashed and now I am looking for a place of my own and lonely without him as he was my world. Has anyone else been through this?

My God you poor thing! This is just awful! What a disgusting thing to do!

Have you got somewhere to live right now?

I am sorry to say this but it sounds like he's met someone else. He's come up with a load of excuses...mental illness my foot! I would also seek legal advice about your money!

OP I am so sorry you're going through this, especially when you're pregnant.
My husband and father of 2 shared children left me, completely out to the blue, in January last year when I was 5 months pregnant. Within 1 week we had a horrible row over something or other, he left me in front of our son, dumped me via text, came and took all hos stuff whilst I was at work and told our sons nursery without telling me. Things went on to get worse, threats to take the baby, emotional abuse and control, leaving my in debt.... the lists goes on! Over a year later we SEEM to be on ok terms, but he's never stable enough for this to last. I'm having CBT therapy to help me deal with his unstablity. I've also had conversations with women's aid over the past year and solicitor to try and help me process all of this. This was a man I loved for 8 years, how could he change so?!
To begin with my heart completely broke and o felt completely empty, panicked and utterly lost. I never thought I would get over him but over a year later I have realised the person I loved no longer exists and I am actually quite happy on my own. You will get there OP too. Relationships break down and that's part of life, but it is not an Opportunity for abuse, no matter what the other is going through. You don't deserve the finical and emotional abuse you have been subjected too. His depression is not an excuse. You will move forward over time, one day it will just hit you that you've moved forward without even realising.
Are you based in the uk? If so I cannot recommend minds matters enough m, they are a fantastic free talking therapy! Make sure you talk and talk and talk... don't carry this burden yourself. I'm always here to talk if it helps and you want to ❤️
