I left tonight

Sun, 12-30-2007 - 2:03am

DH told me to leave tonight so I did. I took the kids and the $15 I had and my sister came and got me. We are staying the night with my dad but tomorrow I have nowhere to go. I will be homeless with four kids. DH has cheated all 11 yrs of our marriage. He promises he will stop. Last time I left in Feb he begged me to come back we went to therapy and things started getting better. Tonight I asked him to go back to therapy but he said no because all they do is blame him. I think he is seriously depressed and unable to love. I caught him outside on the phone and smoking tonight. I have begged him not to smoke. Our kids have major asthma and since he started smoking they have gone from twice a day treatments to six times a day. I guess it has not hit me that I left.

Im am very sorry it ended like this for you, would your dad or sister or any other family let you stay till you get on your feet. I know its awful to have to ask ask for help but sometimes we must. I will say a prayer for you and your kids , they do say god closses one door and opens another i hope that is right for you .

Jennifer- I remember your posts from months ago. If I could send you something, it would be strength right now. Please don't let thoughts of being alone get in the way of what you and your kids deserve in the end.

Jennifer,


Just wanted to let you know we're thinking of you... Would your family be able to help out for a while?

Thanks. I got an appartment after we got back together but turned it down because we were trying to work it out. I am still in school full time. I am going to go see hhsd tomorrow to see for help. We were living with his mom so I could not stay. I think I will be okay. If I have to my sister said I could stay with her a few days. She lives in a two bedroom with her family so it would be way cramped. I am taking it a day at a time.

Jennifer..Ther is no way on God's green earth that you should be without a home.


He needs to leave the home. You need to see a lawyer pronto. Get a court order to get HIM out of the house.


He is a Putz. This infuriates me.

The problem with me having to leave instead of him was we were living with his mom. So it really was not my house.

I feel for you. I am not sure what else to say.

It just galls me at times how dumb us guys can be.

Happy New Year

Dear Jennifer,


I do not have good advice to offer you, but it sounds like you are on top of everything.
