My husband is calling me names and tells me to leave the house

25 replies

Bluewaves829 · 27/04/2025 10:58

He keeps telling me “to fuck off”, “you are crazy”, “I had enough of you”, “I can’t stand you”.
I said ok I’m leaving and then he said I was waiting for you to leave, I told you twice now I can’t stand you and you should leave. I removed myself as I was holding our DC and I don’t want her to witness anymore of this.
I have no where to go …

Any reason you stay? Not one good enough to risk your mh and possibly physical well-being imo.

oviraptor21 · 27/04/2025 10:59

Whose name is the house in?

If you literally have nowhere to go you should contact your local council.

Devilsmommy · 27/04/2025 11:01

Go to your local council tomorrow and explain your situation. I couldn't stay in that situation either. It'll be hard at first but I bet when you're away from that twat you'll be so much happier and it's better for your DD too

oviraptor21 · 27/04/2025 11:02

OP should go now, not tomorrow.

You're married. That makes at least some of it yours too.

Purplecatshopaholic · 27/04/2025 11:03

Doesn’t matter whose name the house is in, if you are married, it’s a joint marital asset (unless a short marriage). Don’t leave if nowhere to go, speak to council etc re housing, and get legal advice asap, he’s abusive.

category12 · 27/04/2025 11:05

If you're married, it doesn't really matter whose name is on the house, you have "home rights". He can't just kick you out. You likely have a claim on it as a marital asset if it's owned.

Of course if he's unsafe to be around, then leaving may be wise.

You could consider getting the police involved to enable you to get your things, or potentially, if he's the aggressor, for him to be removed from the home.

Good point. If you're married the advice will be different. The council may not help you if you can return to your home. What degree of domestic abuse is involved? You may be able to get an occupation order.

I'd still contact the council. They will be able to advise.

bigboykitty · 27/04/2025 11:09

If he's your husband, it's not 'his house', it's a marital asset. Your husband is abusive. Next time he tells you to leave please tell him to feel free to go stay elsewhere. Please talk to Women's Aid or your local domestic abuse service. If you feel frightened or intimidated by him, please do call the police.

Emotional abuse on a daily basis. Twisting the truth. Changing my memory to things. He hates my family - he tried to turn me against them and he saw he couldn’t achieve that. Neglect towards our DC. Yesterday he told me I should leave her teeth get decayed he used to have decayed teeth when he was a child and now he is fine.
This is because I insist on brushing our DC teeth.
I’m talking this is happening daily.

We are married but the house is his inheritance.

Can you not call someone in your family OP?

StopStartStop · 27/04/2025 11:14

Can you go to your parents? It seems to me that you and your child would be safer away from him. Councils used to have emergency (short-term, a night or two) temporary accommodation available for people in real difficulty - that might still be available.

Ohthatsabitshit · 27/04/2025 11:17

If you are married everything he owns is half yours and vice versa (mostly, you may have a very niche situation but for most people this is the case). Go and see a solicitor on Monday and get an understanding of your situation legally. He doesn’t have to give you the house but he certainly should be left with you half of the value of all your joint assets.

Unless you signed a pre-nup or it was specifically legally protected in some other way, it's a marital asset and he knows this too, so is just dick-swinging. You need to leave him anyway. He's abusive on a daily basis. He neglects your children and encourages you to neglect them also. Please get some help.

Inherited assets can be seen as separate from marital assets in a divorce, but they normally have to have been kept separate, like a savings account where the other spouse doesn’t have access. An inherited house which is the marital home will usually be treated as a marital asset (if you are in England)

2JFDIYOLO · 27/04/2025 11:39

You are married.

Do not believe a word he may say about your financial / legal situation. He is not your friend.

The fact the house is his inheritance is irrelevant. You are co owners.

You need professional expert support.

Women's Aid for immediate safety and help for you and your DC.

Legal advice.

But this is clearly over; you don't like, love or respect each other and subjecting your child to observing this can't go on.

The house is half yours if you are married, make sure you get half of it when ye get divorced, you need to do that in order to provide for your child

TipsyJoker · 27/04/2025 13:41

Contact women’s aid for support. Tell them you need to flee domestic abuse with your children and have nowhere to go. They will find you somewhere to go. They can also help you apply for benefits and advise you on applying for social housing.

This is abuse. You have to leave and take the children with you. Also, if you have any of this in texts or similar, I would be reporting it to the police. You don’t have to but it might help you going forward if you have to go to family court. What he’s doing is a crime. He should be reported for it.

Contact women’s aid now. Don’t wait. Don’t tell him either as leaving an abusive relationship is the most dangerously time for women.

Please get some legal advice. My understanding is the house is a marital asset.
Do you have children together?
