I am actively looking for work so I can build up some resources. Our son has life threatening medical problems that are expensive.
Unfortunately, where we live there is no women's shelter and no couselling services, they are a 1-2 hr drive away at least.
My husband has a dog himself (who he always refers to as being mine) and a big fat cat that pukes everywhere. I am going to tell him if that cat pukes one more time he's gone.
I am looking to better the situation whether it be by leaving or getting help.
Thank you for your help. |
I hope you can find work and become more independent, but I don't see your husband as a lost cause. Do you know anything about your husband's childhood; was he close to his family? A man who spends most of his time on his trains sounds like he's trying to escape something, and he may be treating you the way he was treated, but he can learn to do better. They say that even if the man won't go into counseling, the woman should go. Counseling can teach you how to make changes in your life that will change the way others treat you. Best of luck!
