Just looking for some support, and hope! I told my husband I was leaving in June. Mainly due to his emotionally abusive, coercive and gas-lighting ways. He reacted badly, shouted out to the kids (4&6) that I was kicking him out (I wasn't) and has since basically said to take some money out the house and go. He is totally irrational, I can't have a conversation with him about this. He gets nasty, name calling, gas lighting and not caring about what he says in front of the kids. I was happy to walk with just enough to see me right, I've taken time out of my career to have and raise my kids, he's now saying I was lazy and he'd wanted me to be full time (I worked, but part time). So all I can do is pass over to the lawyers and let them do their thing. But I'm stuck in the house. He says it's his, not mine (bought after marriage, but he didn't put my name on the mortgage!). He thinks I should be paying for half of everything now (I'm part time and much lower paid) He refuses to leave for a few nights a week although he has family nearby (I don't). I can't afford to rent. I have an offer accepted on a house (tiny, but doable, with help from my folks) but they can't move out until the end of the year 😫 Help. I'm desperately trying to hold it together for the kids but this is awful. Just walking on eggshells and expecting him to blow up at me at any time. He's being nasty. Anyone done this before? I can't do this.
