My husband ignores me everyday just doesnt talk to me, we have been like this for a few years marriage has broken down, ive tried telling him how i feel theres just nothing no emotion he goes to work comes home and just sits there i asked him to move out and he got angry saying he wasnt leaving its his house aswel its a council house and the tenancy is in my name, he refuses to leave although its just so miserable the house and it isnt fair on the kids, im so unhappy bit cant talk to him because it just turns into a row ive been gettimg silent treatment for weeks at a time for nothing it hurts so much ive just learnt to live with it but now hes just drove me to feel nothing for him other than hate and resentment this isnt how it should be i shouldnt feel sad all the time.

You need advice on how to get him out of the house and start divorce proceedings. Try calling Women’s Aid, they should be able to explain what steps you can take.

I hope you get to the point that I did. My marriage was miserable and we were still co-habitating. We made the decision to keep co-habiting but to do our own thing outside of kids. It worked well until he moved out for good.
i stopped doing everything for him, such as meals, laundry, washing up etc. it worked and I had more time on my hands to do as I pleased because we also set up a daily schedule of when we would do kids routine.

Do not merely continue to learn to live with it because that achieves nothing for you. What do you want to teach your kids about relationships and what are they learning here?. In addition your kids could well do the same in their own adult relationships.

The first post nails it. Be brave and start divorce proceedings with both support from Womens Aid and a local firm of solicitors. He is never going to be amicable and such men never leave quietly. They often refuse to leave just as your man has done.

You are in an abusive relationship with him. His silent treatment of you is an example of emotional abuse. The effects of all this on your children as well is terrible; it is precisely because of them too you should be leaving your abuser.

I know your right this isnt how i should be living and isnt what i want my children to think is normal being ignored all the time ive been broken down i used to be so strong and have so much comfidence time to fimd myself again thankyou for your advice.

What was your outcome? Council told me he has no rights but according to online he does and I think he’s going to play hardball when I’ve been really amicable
