is it a rented or owned property?

threadsoffeeling · 15/03/2011 00:19

you could do what some men do, and that is just not leave. the other partner cannot physically push you out, then they cant make you leave.

i would suggest you let your son stay with your ex, i assume his father, for a while, and see what you can do with your relationship. o

Talk to Shelter, Women's Aid and the CAB. Is the house his (ie only his name on the mortgage/tenancy agreement)? If so, he can ask you to leave, but if it's a joint tenancy/mortgage and you are the main carer for your disabled DS it might be that your XP is the one who a court will order to leave the house.
Also, is this man physically violent or threatening? If so, again, he can be made to leave the house.
However (and not blaming you, just aware that we don't know the full story) if your behaviour is unreasonable or you have MH issues that mean you behave aggressively, it may be the case that your XP is unable to cope with what he sees as a long term situation, and it may be possible to negotiate a more amicable separation if you are getting help for yourself and making an effort.

his house paid for when he lost his wife . i dont think i ahve mh isssues , i just behave badly when tired and emotional . He has been voilent ,and does become very aggressive when he drinks , but we worked throught theses things and now im struggling a little he cant cope with me . if the realashionship is over and i think after tonight it is , (he has gone to bed to bed , dispite me sobbing and trying t oexplain how i feel ans why i think i behave this way . It has bee na riller coaster of a time for me in the past two years , my brother was killed and a lots of oproblems went with tthat , my sister told me she has been abused as a child , i then tried to support her and my son was ill , wiht major behavioural problem .ie freusing to leave the house attacting me he is nearly 16 . ) so it has problem come to this for a reason , i just dont know what to do know .

as unlikely as it might seem you need some sleep right now
everything will seem much clearer in the morning

honestly

then you will have to decide what you really want
it might be that you are exhausted and suffering from depression which can manifest itself in many ways
it might be that you need more support at the moment but don't know the right ways to ask for it
better that you get some sleep and then try to work out what you want tomorrow.
once you have the goal sorted out the you can put together a plan to realise it

it sounds like you have had a very tough time and need support
sometimes when we are at our lowest we push people away hardest

So your partner is a violent drunk. No wonder you are upset and inclined to lash out verbally. TBH getting out of this relationship is going to be the best thing for you - a violent drunk is never going to be able to support you or make you feel happy and safe within your relationship.
WA, SHelter and CAB: you will be helped to find a new home: as you are the mother of a child with SN you will be a priority for local authority housing.
Your partner is a violent drunk so there is no way you will be forced to leave your son in his care.
