Very long story but the jist is this.
Married since 2007 but together for 19 years (I was 15 he was 24) . We both have never had another partner or slept with anyone else so a very special bond we both felt we had. Anyways he is a farmer and we have 4 dcs . His mother and brother are a nightmare and I am now nc. I don't even know why they hate me but basically since we got married they turned on me. Constant criticism of anything I do and loads and loads of verbal abuse and horrible nasty comments said about me to my children . They use dh inheritance as black mail and threaten him constantly if he walks away from farm he will get nothing. He is only a shareholder partner or summit . Iv no idea what that is. I have no involvement in financial side as it's all kept hush hush. I have supported him dutifully for years with kids and he works 7 days a week every day of year. I am sat at home with kids whilst he trots off to the main Farm (where mil and brother live ) where most of the work is done. Anyways I'm rambling. We live in a big house 1 mile away owned by dh parents . I hate it as I just want us to have our own family home. I don't want him to leave farm just want our own home that feels like it's ours and not theirs. He refuses to stand up to his mil and so iv left . I am in rented accommodation with kids. He has ea me for years and chipped away at my self esteem . I started reading MN threads and realised what iv put up with for years is very bad ea. I have tons of things I could tell you. I have another thread on here called " vile narcassist mil ruining our marriage" which explains everything. I did leave him but came back as he promised to change blah blah blah anyways he hasn't so I'm off again and this time I'm done . No more chances and I do not love him anymore. He has chose his family over me and refuses to move to a house of our own. Anyways he says it's mumsnet that has filled my head full of crap and it's mumsnet fault why I am leaving as it's put silly ideas in my head. He says there is no such thing as ea and it's just a bunch of evil woman hating on men ??? I know this is jumbled but I'm crying my eyes out and am so broken I can't think straight. I feel like his family have won and it kills me knowing they will be jumping for joy that they have their precious son all back to themselves . Farmers are so greedy and protective of assets that they don't like anyone marrying into it . I honestly have never cared about his money and don't want a penny from him. I just wanted one big happy family all together on the farm. They won't allow this and his parents made it clear that nobody is allowed to be part of the family unless blood. I even offered to sign a pre nup ?? Anyways it doesn't matter now as I have left him (nearly- waiting of new house being ready ) . It kills me knowing they have won amd got what they wanted all along. He is a spineless bastard for not telling them to fuck off . Arghhhh so sorry for rambling. Anyways apparently it's all mumsnet fault for filling my head full of rubbish ??

They can't take the kids away don't worry this is a threat they always use. But please get your 30 mins with a solicitor and get that key issue on the list so you can get some peace of mind xx

How's u doing? Hope everything is ok?

I remember your previous thread, you have had to put up with far too much for far too long. All that MN did was help you to open your eyes.

Really hope everything turns out well for you now you've finally managed to break away.

Emmerdale that's absolutely bloody marvellous!

Keep the heid, you haven't got long to go, you're going to get through this

Haribogirl · 25/01/2017 12:11

I more night, then you can breathe. No walking on eggshells or going into other room

Can't imagine his face when he walks in on Thursday night from work, empty house🏡 Serves him right for not sticking up and supporting his wife.

My friend is engaged to a farmer.
They get one weeks holiday a year...in November. All has to be carefully thought out and planned.
They never get a summer week....he's too busy.
They live apart so she can enjoy her family, social life etc

It works because they make it work ( and he's a lovely man) but not a life I could aspire too.

Hope it's all working out for you op.

Gwenhwyfar · 25/01/2017 18:58

Dowser, I know of farming families where the man NEVER takes a holiday. The woman and children go on their own.

BoboBunnyH0p · 25/01/2017 21:13

Great news, Happy new home.

TheSilveryPussycat · 25/01/2017 22:00
