I am 40 years old and live in a small-ish town where I was born. I was raised by good parents and always looked forward to being an adult and living my dreams.
I have an education and am always doing any temp job I can find.
My problem area is in the men I have met, specifically my husband. This has been my only marriage and I truly thought it would be for life ~ I was determined to never get a divorce. I have countless books about how to save a marriage, understand your alcoholic spouce etc but I finally realized I was with someone who didn't have a good heart and nothing I could do could make him that way.
I sell items online ~ toys or clothes we no longer can use but it only brings in a small amount. I have been looking for work but haven't landed a job yet ~ this area is harder unless you're an engineer or nurse, it seems. I look forward to moving to a larger area so we can start our life over ~ I pray that my husband does not try to follow us or hurt me and need to get a will in case something does happen to me.
If there is anything you would like to know about me, feel free to contact me ~
Hi,
I am a mom to 2 daughters who are not in school yet. I would add a pic but afraid someone my husband knows would see this and then I would be in deep trouble.
I am 39 years old and have been married almost 7 years. When I married my husband, I was so happy and had only the highest hopes for our family.
A few months after we married, I discovered he has a drinking and gambling problem. He subsequently became very abusive towards us. It became physical during my 2nd pregnancy. I have been working on "fixing" our marriage for years but have finally realized he does not have a good heart and nothing I can do will help.
I am afraid he will kill me when I try to leave but know it's our only chance at a safe future... I am also very concerned about his overtly-sexual behavior towards our daughters.
He has control over all the money ~ he would never put my name on the bank accounts and won't even let me see what we have in the bank. I make small amounts of money from odd jobs and am looking for more secure employment.
I know that I need to leave but I have no money. I need an attorney and a small amount to reloacte if necessary. I'm worried about the attorney most of all because he has told me repeatedly that if I try to leave him, he will ruin me and take the children. I believe he will try because he has destroyed my property out of anger when I don't do what he wants.
If anyone could help my children and I, I would be forever grateful and am willing to do whatever it takes to get my children into a safe and stable home.
thank you so much ~
