Leaving angry husband with young children?

9 replies

MadeinSW3 · 06/07/2021 21:37

Totally fed up of my angry husband.

Won’t communicate.

Ignored each other on my recent birthday as he exploded and wouldn’t apologise.

Says hurtful comments.

More interested in going to the pub than family events.

There for kids but no for me, sits idle for hours expects me to do all cooking.

Gets angry about minor issues eg lost keys.

Swears often including infront of 3 young children.

Had enough and it’s time to go. Don’t chat or enjoy day to day life - he would rather just have sex every night and gets moody as I am too tired.

Won’t react if I am upset due to his actions.

No adult conversation to resolve matters.

Well, you've got your list of unreasonable behaviour ready. Just divorce him already. His anger isn't good for your DC.

This, obviously.

He sounds abusive.

I left with 3 kids. Things got so bad that it was the only viable alternative

You need to leave him, obviously.

I left a v similar marriage, w three kids under 6. (A lifetime ago!)
I literally never missed him. Not once. Or doubted my decision. He was a nightmare for a year or so, but I'd shut all emotional doors to him and eventually he gave up because I grey rocked him (didn't know that phrase then).
I got on with divorcing him as rapidly as I could.
We left with the clothes on our backs, I didn't have a car, and in those days, only income was my student grant until I got housing benefit.
But we managed.
You can do it to.
I never regret walking out and changing my life.

Thanks, sorry was just having a rant.
Not sure how you one can be so pig ignorant to behave like a prick upset your wife but be adamant it’s ok because she did something to annoy.
Spending the day alone today as he’s away after work watching the football. Have been to M&S to get treats and will enjoy alone.
