      After half a decade of building up to getting out. I finally got through. He admitted we were different people and said he would move out. (I don’t think I am very different apart from even less confidence and self esteem from constantly being bullied every day)
      He is now stalling and being a bit nicer to me so I am doubting myself. I know this is my chance of freedom. If I don’t do it now I could end up stuck in turmoil for years to come. Or even for the rest of my life. Bit is it as bad as I think it is.
      (detail removed by Moderator) decades together and children. Ever hung in our life is fine apart from the rages, lack of support, no compliments and no affection. Refusal to take me on a date night or spend time with me.
      If we separate money will be so tight, I will be lonely and life will be hard. But at least a decision will be made. And one day I might meet mr right although doubting there are any.

      Hey, you are already lonely and life is hard with an abuser. I left my long term marriage and I won’t lie, it was very difficult at first… for me about 8 months but during those months it got easier.
      Your already low self esteem is still being impacted and I can hear how unhappy you are, it isn’t too late as it is never too late.

      I left when I was (detail removed by Moderator). You will have rights, speak to Womans Aid, get a free 30 min solicitor appointment, my local CAB were helpful and speak to a a trusted GP .

      ❤️
