Been married 14 years tomorrow but the whole marriage has been a sham. I have found messages, emails even looking up sex workers over the years. As far as I know it never led to anything but shows a lack of respect.
Last year I suggested an open marriage. It worked for a while, made us appreciate each other for a while but I don't think he liked me getting more interest than him.
We have 3 children, Youngest is only 3. I gave up my part time job the year before last so I have no money coming in. He normally works full time and travels 2 hours a day so hardly see him but since lock down Im struggling. He works from home and stays out the way but when I do see him we start to argue and he has started to make my skin crawl. One e.g I had a bath the other night, my only me time and he opened the bathroom door safety lock. Looked at me I could tell what he wanted to do I said no! and he reached down and touched me, I said I told you no! and he said sorry and left.
With 3 children though and no job I don't know what I can do. We have some savings and a rented property.

He sounds pretty horrendous and I'm not surprised you want to leave. Use the online calculators to work out what CM and benefits you would be entitled to then start looking at where you could live. Do you have any family you could go to in the short term? Can he move out and you stay where you are? I'm sure there will be someone else who will have some better advice than me but I didn't want to read and run
