I'm on the West Coast of Scotland. If I leave him, I lose everything, my only hope is that he makes good on his promise of being fed up with me and leaves me. He won't though. I'm screwed.
I hate myself for it but I can't bring myself to leave him without financial provision. I know, I'm an idiot. The only thing I can think is because I have been with him since I was a child really, 18, and I am now 30 and I have a misplaced loyalty.
Eric, my mobile is lying in the other room or else I would have txtd you right away, edit your number out, too many internet weirdies, I have saved it if you don't mind? Even if it was a silly, friend text? My culled friend is just realising that I've culled her and it is horrible
Thanks Zoe & Eric, you have both been a wonderful help, I need to pull myseld together and not make things worse with youngling (although the wearing off of his beer goggles probably prevents it being an option).
I'l do my best and not go any further than with morbid thoughts, I doubt I would even have the balls.
Meep, you can leave him and still give him some money if it makes you feel better, a set amount a month just to start with until you know he is getting benefits then cull.
Please take Erics advice and talk to the lady. If not stay here and talk to us as I am worried about you x
I can't Eric, I'll come over as a whining brat with nothing wrong, he is always Mr Perfect, I can never explain it and when i try, I am always wrong.
Thank you so much, you and Zoe have helped me more than any 'real' people. If it weren't for Hitched, I don't know where I would go half the time. I'm not a prolific poster (this is my Chrsitmas name so worse than usual) but the idea that there is always someone if I need them is waht makes Hitched the great place it always has been. Do I sound like an advert now? I have had nearly 3 bottles of wine but don't feel a dent but I might be coming across else-wise. Might as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb, 1 bottle, 4 bottles.............
It's been all awkward in work and I've only had to look in the bathroom mirror to know I am kidding myself to think it could have gone further. I used to be okay, 3 stones ago but ah well, what does it matter in the long run?
FWIW I 'know' you if that makes sense, ie you arent invisible on hitched.
You will not not not ever sound like a whining brat with nothing wrong , he is NOT mr perfect, infact far from it. Abuse is not just physical. The lady on the phone is there to listen just like we have, nothing you have said is whining at all. Tell her what you have told us if you arent sure what else to say. If you cant pick up the phone just carry on typing Im here for as long as you need
Meep I can guarentee that I am more overweight than you and I have a H and have had a larger than average number of conquests, size has nothing to do with it, trust me I'm a fatty
You will not be laughed at, you will not be considered whiney - nobody will judge. Ring Kate, or ring me. Ring one of us please. I will not sleep tonight until you do.
Really? You know me on Hitched? You might be mixing me up with AnnaBanana, she has a similar profile pic? I didn't think anyone knew me!
I just can't say it outloud, I always talk it down, I'm too proud? I can't even get drunk tonight I am so pathetic I've even tred to cut my left arm, I am so pathetic (can't do it right though)!! I am a 30 year old married woman FFS - why can't I stop acting/wishing I was 18?
Please sleep - the phone is too beepy for me to use just now. I will text you though tomorrow after I top my phone up if ok? I can say it all here but in conversation I always defend him and don't get anywhere. He was right, all his eggs are in my basket, he's just lucky that I'll do my best not to drop them.
No not confusing you with annabanana so ner ? Im a saddo and am here more than 6 hours a day so recognise most IDs. But I do 'know' you.
I can understand not being able to say it outloud, do try to call the lady, but I will be here to talk to if you can't (promise)
You are wishing you were 18 as I think that might be the last time you were truly happy, its not stupid, its normal when you have a partner that is treating you like a door mat.
No one is truly invisible, someone here always notices even if you dont think that they have. I often feel like no one notices me on here either and I have over 15,000 posts!
If you want to talk again after today just shout (im on msn if you have that, if you do I'll post my ID)
I'll try to phone now but I don't know what to say, it'll seem so petty. Please don't think I'm being Mrs Attention Seeking I just am paralysed with, I dunno, uncertainty.
Meep - it may seem like a really difficult thing to do, but really the hardest thing is actually lifting the receiver and punching the buttons. Nothing more difficult than that.
All you need to do is lift the receiver, press the buttons and then do nothing - you dont even need to speak. Honestly, you can remain silent for the whole duration.
