I’ve realised that my very long marriage is no longer meeting any of my needs and I’m sick of the frequent sulks and moods and the general shittiness of my marriage. It’s just working and I’ve had enough. I want a happy life away from him. He calls all of the shots financially and emotionally. I realised over the last few years that I have no real life other than him and my kids and no local support system. We moved here for my husbands job. So after being a SAHM for many years I finally managed to get myself a job. It’s long hours and little pay but it’s a start. My question is what do I do next? Covid means there are no properties to rent in my area and the market has gone insane. People are bidding against each other to buy houses in my area. I can’t afford anything. I live in one of the most expensive areas in the UK. I don’t know what to do. I have about 12 years until all my kids are finished school. I need to be living somewhere affordable. Has anyone been in a similar position? What did you do? Thanks
