Time to leave?

I think I need to leave my husband but I’m not strong enough to do it
I have no friends, live miles away from family and no idea how I will manage to provide for my children if I do (one is disabled so not currently working)
Our relationship is toxic, just feels like nothing but arguments and trying to get one up on each other all the time. I’m not angel bur I can’t cope with his temper anymore he’s restrained me in the past gone to throw things at me and hit walls and smashed things up. I feel like I’ve worked at it as much as I can but I can’t even bring myself to kiss him anymore.
I can’t stay but I can’t leave I don’t know what to do

Call woman’s aid Flowers

The only acceptable level of abuse in a relationship is none.

Do call Womens Aid; they can help you with planning to leave him safely.
I would also suggest you seek legal advice asap.

The dude sounds like a sociopath.
Whybin earth would anyone want to kiss someone who abuses them? This is not a fault with you. It's all him.

Definately speak with women's aid.

If the house is owned, you will be due a share of that (plus the savings ect) in the divorce. I believe you can get get a free 30 minutes with a solicitor too so defo see about that.

Get proof of his income if possible. So that you can show that if needed at any point.
