We were together 13 years , he was abusive in every way but I stuck with him
we have children.
The last year we’ve had financial problems I didn’t know exactly how much as he has the accounts but I know he would tell me he got no money when I asked for some for stuff, he works full time and paid all the rent bills etc .
Anyway may half term we argue because I need money for daughter school shoes and he says he don’t have any money and won’t budge so I have no choice but to send her in split shoes diy them the best I could to last June and July.
Early June we argue about this and he flips and says I’m always on his case asking for money and says he isn’t dealing with it anymore and grabs a backpack and leaves. I asked him where he’s going and he said a mates.
Literally goes quiet then for around a week wouldn’t talk to me I guess he was still working at this point. Anyway since I’ve found out he’s ran up debts , played online games etc and I’ve had a company contact me also I can’t pay rent or have much money for food etc as he had all the money , he’s been in touch recently calling me multiple times a day told me he’s signed off work sick because he can’t deal with it anymore , also I think he’s been following me .
When I do answer he refuses to talk about how I’m meant to pay rent and sort this mess out and he says he can’t deal with it and just wants to know what I’m upto how the kids are etc.
im going round In circles trying to get him to help me . When he left I was so upset and just was heartbroken I realised I loved him as I was confused about my feelings because he treated me very badly sometimes, I’m still feeling sad and I miss him and can’t believe he’s done this I just don’t know what to do.
I have got child benefit going into my account next payment as I had to call them to change what account it goes into as he has my old bank account . I just don’t know what to do without him I’m so lonely and sad at night I think about calling him asking him to come back so we can sort it , I don’t actually call him though I don’t know what stops me. But if he came back and he went back to work at least the rent wouldn’t be in arrears and we could work at our relationship.
Any advice appreciated
