How easy it is to leave?

Can anyone advise please. I have totally had it. I can't take it anymore. My OH is increasingly down on me - my life is a misery - I suspect we are a short way away from it turning physical. He thinks he is a great parter and dad. I feel like the housekeeper and hired shag. I am too bored with it all even to write at length on here suffice to say many of the histories I read on here seem similar to mine. The impetus to improve things has died on both sides. I have 2 small children and he says there is no way I can leave with them. Is there anything to stop me just leaving with the when he is out? Does he legally have a right to live with them? I am scared we won't be able to leave if he finds out.

yes there does seem to be a recognisable pattern to these things

The other recognisable pattern is people DO leave and do go on to become happy.

I am worn out and need to sign off and go to bed.

sometimes I seriously despair about what a struggle life is.

OTHER TIMES I look at my lovely children , remember all I HAVE come through, sigh deeply and think life is sweet.

Get some rest, love.
Do what you have to do, and do it soon.

What are you waiting for ?

Tch no wonder you dont want him anywhere near you.. you can't just switch off the anger and upset to have sex with him, he however probably sees sex as a way of 'making up' with you, i know my XP used to.

Men are simple yet complex creatures at times.
And if its only a matter of time till he cheats, cross your fingers, hope for it, and it will maybe give you the strength you need to boot him out. Then the OW can put up with his shit and you will be free.

Like bigted said, what are you waiting for There is someone out there who will treat you with nothing but love and respect. In the meantime, the only person who will love and respect you enough to protect you, and give you the chance to be happier, is you.
