Relationship breakdown

Iv been in a long term relationship for just over 8 years. We have 2 children 6 & 3 and I’m pregnant at the moment. Just recently iv felt really down about the way my partner treats me, it’s no different to how he has always treated me really I suppose I thought he would eventually change, but it’s looking as though I’m the 1 who has change. I can’t stand anything about him no more, he’s so disrespectful with out home and towards me. Iv worked on and off over the last 8 years but when both my children was baby’s I left my job to be a stay at home mum and he always supported that, but then in any argument he throws money up in my face that he is the 1 that earns the most! I’m currently working part time and I enjoy my job but he constantly slates everything about me working, how we have to send the kids to nursery too early so I can start from 730 and how I don’t earn as much and how my job is meaningless. No matter what I do it’s just never good enough! He has nothing to do with my family but expects me to be really involved with his! He slates my family, he slates my friends he constantly slates me for just been me and I don’t think I can handle it no more. The house is in his name the car is in his name I have very little savings and I’m on the local council housing list and not moving up the list at all. I just want to leave but I have no where to go at all unless I leave my children behind and he knows this. I think he enjoys me been trapped in his world. I just want a fresh start…

Can you temporarily move to your parents with the children and apply for social housing with new circumstances?

Are you actively bidding for places? It's not really about "moving up" a list as I remember it, it's about banding - if your band is eligible for certain properties, you bid for it and hope you're accepted. While you live with your partner, your band is going to be low.

Assuming your parents' would be less suitable, not if they've got tons of room Grin

Did you post something similar very recently?
If your partner is abusive I'm sure you will get some help via womens aid. He sounds like a dick tbh 💐
