Think my DH has ended it

[FrustratedBeyond]

He's never been a man able to write things down without anger, but we've not been doing good for a while. Today he texts 'as of now you can go do what you want you are no longer mine and I'm not longer yours'. Hehas a history of over reacting but I feel this may be real. After 15 years together I don't know what to think, almost relieved but my head is messed up. I now need to think wtf I am going to do with work (I'd have to quit or go on a career break) and now the idea of less money is bloody scary. Sorry to rant

I don't know what to say or how to help, but I just wanted to bump your message and hope someone wise will come along. Sending you hugs.

I think the fact you feel relieved says a lot.

What's your home/work situation like now? Does he do any childcare? Have a look at the Entitled To calculator to see whether you are entitled to tax credits or help with childcare. Be practical now, even if you don't split up, as it sounds as though you might need it in the future.

What triggered this? Did you have a row?

What is your housing situation? Do you have DC?

If you've both been unhappy for a while a clean break might be best for both of you to be honest.

Why would you need to quit work?
