Trapped

i don’t know where to start…..

I have 3 beautiful children (2 with current partner). But, so so unhappy in my relationship. Things have been rubbish for the last few years. He is moody, doesn’t want to spend time with me, we have no love life, he does very little to help out at home, his main priority is his job, is controlling with money…….

I would love things to work out and get better, but have tried everything. Even begged him to take me out on a date night. He doesn’t want to.

Anyway, I have decided to leave as I can’t take it anymore.

Problem is it’s his house. I stupidly moved from a rental in my name believing he was going to put me on the house. I’ve started looking at rentals, but the rents are so high and places like gold dust in this area. I work part time atm and have saved a deposit, have at least 1 guarantor but can’t see agents renting to me unless I get him to agree to putting his name on the lease?

He doesn’t want me to leave. He likes the way things are.

What do I do? Feel trapped. Stay? I could sleep on the floor in one of the kid’s rooms.

Do you have a parent’s house you could move to, temporarily ?
Honestly, you need to get out of that house. Stop him being in control, don’t put him on the lease.
