..to help myself.
Finally built up the courage to call it a day with my childrens dad. I have been feeling miserable and lonely for weeks. Someone hold my hand and tell me it will be ok :(

My head feels clearer than it has for months today, like a switch has been turnt on in my head. I cant deal with the drunken antics every weekend, the constant arguements.

Yet i still feel so guilty that my children will never have a 'normal' family again. Life is hard!

I could suggest email as a method of contact but, he would definitely see that as me being dramatic and awkward

Aah - but the fabulous thing is, you don't have to give a flying fuck what he would see anything as.

It is painful to begin with and you never think you'll feel differently but there comes a time where you cannot wait for the lie in/ time to yourself or with girlfriends.

If he does opt to have the eldest overnight sometimes try to keep busy and have a good friend over.

You may sadly find with his juvenile drunken behaviour he seems to opt for, that he may take this as a green light to go out all the time and having the children overnight never happens Sad

Take it one step at a time lovey and seek legal advice x
