Hi can someone help me please and offer some advice. For the past year or more I’ve been feeling very depressed and so unsure in my marriage. To be honest I’ve never really been in love with my husband but I did grow to love him over the years. We were only together a couple of months when I got pregnant why my first child. He is a good man but not an affectionate man and can be quiet cold and controlling. I put up with it over the years but the last few months I found it hard to put up with and instead of saying something (which I have done loads over the years) I just went into a deep depression. I knew I had to get out of this marriage. I have two daughters one is 18 and the other is 9. I tried to stay for them. Surprisingly my husband noticed something was wrong with me. I told him how unhappy I was and that I cried all the time. He said he would listen more to me but i didn’t notice any change and to be honest I felt it was too little too late. Fast forward to 3 weeks ago and I told him it was over I just needed to be on my own as my mind was so fragile I needed peace and no more fighting. I asked him to give me space for a month at least to see how we get on. After lots of saying no he finally agreed to two weeks. but before they were up I told him again that I didn’t want to be married to him anymore. The peace I felt while he was gone for those weeks was so perfect. He came back before the time was up and still begged me to give us another go. When I said no he called my two daughters and told them I was breaking up the family even though he had begged me not to and that their lives would change and never be the same again. He said a lot more than this basically blaming me for everything. My 9 year old daughter was so upset. I felt like just saying ok let’s stop and get back to normal again - I’ll put up with it for the kids. But some how I didn’t. He’s still insisting in living here and said he is putting the house up for sale. The house is in both our names. Thankfully I don’t think he has turned my girls against me as they are still so loving towards me like we always were. His family have been on to me telling me he deserves better than me and basically believing all his lies. I feel like I have no one to support me. Can anyone offer me any advice please? Is it worth my while sticking to my decision or would it be easier just go back to being a family again until my youngest is older. I don’t feel I am strong enough for all this. Thanks
