Hello
I hope everyone is doing as well as possible in the situation that we find ourselves in.
(Detail removed by moderator) I left my husband (who I had been with for (detail removed by moderator)) who had been verbally abusing me for years. It took some time to realise the depth and impact of the abusive due to it being so covert. I am now living in a rental property (he is dragging his heels selling the house and obviously COVID has put a temporary holt to this) for which I am paying for, along with all childcare and paying him for my portion of the mortgage (less the CSA I would be entitled to).
I wanted to get on with divorce proceedings, so that I can really be free from him (although I understand with 2 children this isn’t totally possible) but again he kicked off about the content. I told him to file against me instead but he wouldn’t do that either.
I finally built up the courage to get the solicitor to submit the papers and now I am awaiting the next barrage of abuse….. because everything, in his view, is my fault.
The daily feelings of guilt after years of being conditioned to believe I am always wrong is taking it’s toll.
Sorry for the long post!
