      He leaves at any given opportunity where he feels he has an excuse to, such as the kids playing up or me daring to go out with friends / family without him . He Disappears all night then comes home in a day or two and expects me to just be ok with that . I’ve had enough . It’s not right is it ? To just leave all the time ? I have no idea where he goes but I’m guessing there are other women involved . Of course he’ll deny this but I know it’s true, he’s got form for it . How can I escape this relationship ? Hes so controlling and he will use the kids to hurt me , to get his own way, he does it every time . I’m backed into a corner but I desperately want a way out

      Hi Dahlia23,

      Thank you for your post. I’m sorry to hear about your situation. What you have described is not right. you mentioned how controlling he is and doesn’t sound like he applies the same rules to himself. Abusive men will often use your children against you- he wants you to feel trapped. You and your kids deserve better.

      It sounds like you may need more ongoing support with making a plan to leave. You may want to contact your local domestic abuse service for support around this.

      Best Wishes

      Lisa
