Darling JustLost. I've lived in a place unfriendly to human-beings, let alone women... I've lived in a country in the ME. I had no RL friends at all for the longest time, and then only a couple, both mostly via text and email...
I've had rows with DH, he's stormed out, he's stayed away.. to begin with it was hard, especially cos you are on your own in a strange land, and one that's not hospitable to lone foreign women... so no chance of going out on your own....
I've been hit, knowing that no-one would bat an eyelid, the police wouldn't take it seriously, and in fact, calling th epolice out there would probably make a bad situation worse.. they'd want bribes etc. I chucked him out that day tho, I didn't back down.
Oh, I'm also an ex-depressive and suicide survivor... so I know how black it can get.
I hope to catch you before you go to bed, please, a couple of words of advice..
Don't Panic.
If he has somewhere to stay out, let him. If he doesn't (and if this is ME country...) locking him out of the house could be the absolute end of the marriage... so I'd advise that you go to bed, but leave it so he 'can' come back.
Everything will be better in the morning. Leave it all to just sit and calm down a bit for now. Winding yourself up won't help you, and it won't actually affect anyone else...
Sending calming vibes your way, all wrapped up in a great big hug. You are not alone now!
