That's it really, always said if it comes to that....I'm done.
I understand it doesn't hit has hard as what others have and do go through. But that was my threshold

How are you feeling? What advice/ help do you need to get out of your situation?

Dontaskmegoogleit · 31/07/2020 23:32

I dont know what advice I need. Just needed to write down and confirm, if that makes sense. Perhaps I need , yes you deserve more than that ?

Your line has been crossed, you are totally reasonable to say no more that's it.
There is no good reason for someone to use that word against you and you are right to not accept it.

Dontaskmegoogleit · 31/07/2020 23:35

Just for context. Second marriage, I have 1dd and 1 ds, 20 and 17.
He has been our lives for 10 years, always issues, but I brushed them under the carpet.

No more brushing under the carpet you are worth more than that, your children deserve a better example than that

Dontaskmegoogleit · 31/07/2020 23:38

Thank you, yes. A line has been crossed. Which weirdly enough I have only set recently.

You don't need to tolerate this nonsense. It's not what comes out of the mouths of even half decent men. Raise the bar for yourself, don't talk yourself out of leaving him and get the ball rolling.

I sometimes despair of what some women will tolerate. The only acceptable level of verbal abuse is none

LovingLola · 31/07/2020 23:38

Go and don’t look back.

whatisthenewnormal · 31/07/2020 23:38

What would you tell your Dd if someone spoke to her like that?

amillionwishes · 31/07/2020 23:39

If you need to be told that your line has been crossed and you need to leave then I'll tell you 

Can you elaborate at all on your situation? Are there kids involved? Are you married? Do you need help finding alternative accommodation or making your oh leave?

I hope you're ok as you can be, are you in any way at threat of violence or is it all verbal? You can call the police either way if you're concerned about your safety. Stay safe @Dontaskmegoogleit

Dontaskmegoogleit · 31/07/2020 23:39

My kids DO deserve better.

OP posts:
LovingLola · 31/07/2020 23:39

How was he with your children?

amillionwishes · 31/07/2020 23:40

I'm sorry OP we hugely crossed posts. You and your DC deserve better

whatisthenewnormal · 31/07/2020 23:40

YOU deserve better than that

Dontaskmegoogleit · 31/07/2020 23:42

Thank you all for your consideration, I've been on mumsnet for a fair few years,and with that, I've realised what I've put up with. Drip... drip.... drip...

OP posts:
Lookyloo · 31/07/2020 23:44

Good for you. Do you have a plan yet?

amillionwishes · 31/07/2020 23:44

Feel free to unload how you're feeling

BlessYourCottonSocks · 31/07/2020 23:44

I'd be done too. It's just unacceptably misogynistic and vile. I'd never be with someone who could call any woman that, never mind one he is supposed to have some respect and love for.

Get out now, OP.

whatisthenewnormal · 31/07/2020 23:45

Be strong and protect yourself, you do not deserve to be spoken to like that.
Please seek help on splitting with your abusive partner and do it. Life in the other side is so much better

Dontaskmegoogleit · 31/07/2020 23:46

He has been good with my children, they have issues with the way he treats me. Yes I know !
How can I be an example to my daughter and son. But in reality i let things slide if the good weighs out the bad..... not saying that's right.

OP posts:
Dontaskmegoogleit · 31/07/2020 23:52

Sorry if I'm not replying to individuals. My tech skills on social media are lacking, slow type too !

OP posts:
amillionwishes · 31/07/2020 23:53

I think you know he isn't good to your kids if he treats their mother so badly. Your self esteem is probably quite low now if you've endured this for 10 years

Dontaskmegoogleit · 31/07/2020 23:57

I'm more financially stable than he is. Last time we nearly broke up his only interest was how much he could get of the equity on my house. He wanted me to ask my dad to buy him out.
I get that he deserves something , but his fantasy is way off reality.

OP posts:
amillionwishes · 31/07/2020 23:58

Have you seen a solicitor?

Dontaskmegoogleit · 31/07/2020 23:59

I dont know why I am wary / scared of being on my own...... I loved it before. For 6 years !
