Feel like I can't leave the relationship

I want to leave but feel like I can't. I've been in a previous abusive relationship and he still continues to abuse me, currently awaiting family court.
However this relationship is a same sex one and I guess I've ignored behaviours and let things go as the dynamic is different to my previous relationship. However I know its toxic. She's mean, not understanding, selfish, throws tantrums if stuff doesn't go her way. She's 10 years older than me too. I don't love her anymore, I just feel so unhappy.
I don't know why I can't end it. So many times I've tried. I get to the point of ending it and i just can't. I don't know if it's because I'm vulnerable because of the looming court dare, because our children get on so well or because I have a great bond with her child. I just keep thinking about tearing them apart and it upsets me. But I'm just not happy. I don't know what to do anymore

Having somewhere to go would be a start.
