HELP ...I WANT MY HUSBAND TO LEAVE!!
| Sat, 09-16-2006 - 6:52am |
Help! I just don't know what to do! My husband has been verbally abusive since before the marriage (2years ago) and slightly physically abusive. He now complains that I am attacking him and "HURTING" and Absuing him becuase I am finally telling him how much he has crushed me. My husband used to have a great paying job that he hated but he has decided to go back to school for a graduate degree so we have moved in with my parents who have been really nice. We have savings. I don't have a job but I am looking but I have no place to go. But I have asking him DAILY for the past 3 weeks to leave. He won't leave. I want him to leave. What can I do?

Yes, you will lose some friends when you divorce. It happens. The question to ask yourself is, are your friends so valuable to you that you are willing to stay in the marriage for them?
I come from a conservative religious background too, one of the more conservative ones, and divorce is common enough nowadays that a lot of people don't think twice about it.
Decide what you can live with.

For the support and understanding you really need to wrestle with your situation, I really urge you to post on the Dealing With Domestic Abuse board and read up on abusive situations on the Domestic Abuse Board's Homepage . You need to better understand your situation and your options, and you could really use the dialogue with others who have been or are in abusive situations. You'll gain more than you think you will.
