Has anyone gone through an awful relationship and subsequent divorce? I’m having a really bad time. Not sure how Mumsnet works but if you can see my other post, there’s a good example in there about why. My husband is basically a big bratty kid. Throws dummy a lot which is now making life hell because we have two kids. And when I say throws dummy I mean over the most silly stuff. Pretty much every day. We don’t see eye to eye on parenting matters, he’ll sulk for DAYS, he makes everything a drama (it’s like we have two kids, grow up) and yeah, it’s bad. But! He can be really loving with our kids (and me) too. And he’ll recognise that he is a lazy bastard when we’re on speaking terms and recognise I do way more than fair share in house and try help out. And I feel 100% certain no danger of cheating. Plus he is really stressed with work (like way more than normal pressure). But it’s just more often bad than it’s good. And even when it’s good, I’m just waiting for it to be bad again. And I am finding it more and more difficult to forgive him. Because when he sulks, he sees me really upset but tries to make it worse by being cold. But the people on here (I’ve just joined) I notice are v quick to say really strong views, which is great and definitely merited in some occasion, but I also would like to hear from someone who recognises how shit it is feeling stuck and scared for the future and not knowing if it’s worth staying to see if the bad eventually fades away. I just feel so sad. I also have a mental health condition, and impossible shyness, that basically makes me think it’ll be really hard to find someone else (as well as fact I have two v little kids). So yeah. Would b nice to hear from someone who knows it’s not so easy to just pack bags!
