marriage in jeapardy

spunkiedolittle's picture

I have finally made it clear to dh that I CANNOT/will not support 7 people on my own income by myself, and things are quickly starting to unravel-and our marriage is now in jeopardy. I told him that my first reaction to sd being pg was that she has 6 months to get out and I NEED to stand by that. Some of you know what’s going on some don’t but while sd15 was here for the weekend I got mad at her (but so angry with everything) that I almost hit her (I did jokingly-barley touched her while playing a game, but the intention and desire to hurt someone WAS THERE) I also told her afterwards to make sure she tells her mom I hit her (pretty much asking dh to make me leave) I said this because while dh and bm were discussing sd13 bm revealed that she knows A LOT of what’s going on around our house-if sd15 witness’s it-good or bad she repeats-yeah I was irritated, but still is NO reason to act against a child-regardless. Also, I have been telling dh for a while to close the fucking cabinet doors (because I’m JUST tall enough that if left open at the right angle I hit my head and it hurts) and he can’t ever “remember” to do this. So Tuesday morning I WANTED to slam one up against my head-to draw blood to see if that would work. So wanting to hit sd and wanting to hurt myself told me THERE IS A PROBLEM. I told dh a week ago that I’m struggling BAD right now, and need him to pick himself up, and that I’m tired of being told to deal with it from the beginning on EVERYTHING-so far, nothing has changed.

So I take refuge to my mom’s house while dd is with her dad for the holidays. I went there last night and just let loose on her about EVERYTHING. I stay til about 9 and head home; I get home, take my work cup to the kitchen and see YET AGAIN a sink full of dishes. I say nothing, I head to the tub, and then dh and I talk. I told him I CANNOT support sd especially after basically lying to us and that I refuse to support 7 people on my income alone, I WONT do it. I told him I might be able to hold off a while longer if he AND sd24 were working but I just can’t, not like this. Especially after a day of telling him that I’m struggling then I come home with dirty dishes in the sink and HE SAYS the dishwasher was full-SO WASH THEM BY HAND!

So he admits that he was just avoiding “kicking her out” but knows and understands that I’m right, she needs to get out if SHE can’t quit reproducing-so I told him well, MY first reaction was 6 months-jan IS 6 months. So we agreed she needs to be out by end of this Jan.

So this morning-yet another blow out, he’s yelling at me to get up (I’m losing my thrive to get up in the mornings) I told him “I don’t need to get up this early because I KNOW what I’m taking” and he tells me “that’s no excuse” I LOST IT. I get up start looking for my clothes to pack to go stay at my mom’s for a few days I have NO pants, NO clean jeans NO bra’s (though I don’t have a lot there is NO reason with SOMEONE THERE all fucking day, why I should EVER run out of clean clothes)-I tell him so what about the fact that every fucking time you have a chance to go look for a job SOMETHING comes up and you don’t? I can’t call in because I have an abscessed tooth that hurts like hell. When I bite I want to scream, yet I can’t take pain medicine because it’ll put me to sleep and I HAVE TO WORK because no one else will. But right now *I* have no excuse??? What about the fact that YOU were here all damn day, and sd got home at 3pm from looking for a job, yet the TWO loads of laundry that need done aren’t and *I* have no excuse. His response “I’m SICK”. So I walk away and tell him as I’m walking away “I’m so sick and tired of being told to deal with it and that’s the EXACT attitude you’re giving me.” he also walks away and slams the door shut-I tell him if THAT’S how it’s going to be I don’t WANT to be here.

So really, I don’t see this lasting another month I really don’t hell I really don’t see this lasting another week without me blowing up. I told dh where THEY BOTH could go to come home with a job, and not ONE of them went-sd did go to temp agencies-but because she got up when she felt like it a position she COULD’VE had if she was up and attem like I ASKED for her to be she WOULD’VE come home with a job.

So dh does agree that I need to get away for a while-but 2 things came up this morning that reminded me why I DON’T. 1) no one does laundry til THEY run out of clothes 2) he can’t survive more than 12 hours without me-before I left, he asked “what about gas and cigarettes” I told him “that’s a lot of it there too, you can’t survive without me for more than 12 hours” W H Y I threw him one of the cc’s is beyond me-probably just to make him shut up and get out???

they change once the ring goes on. Happened to me twice before AND with GG, he believes he IS married to me (although not legally) and entitled to AT LEAST half of my stuff (including of course, the sacred HOUSE that I bought to be "closer to his kids" (TM).

Funny thing he was willing to give the Behemoth EVERYTHING during the divorce "for the sake of the skids" (TM), but with me he wants to stick it to me.

Actually report the CC lost, didn't realize you gave him a credit card. You can't afford it. He needs a job and he's not going to get one as long as you are supporting him and his adult spawn and he has plans of you supporting his spawns spawn too. Make him man up or get out. You must make decent money if you are supporting 7 people. Take yourself and your daughter and go rent something cheap

and stop getting stuff for him or giving him money, that includes HIS children. If you do buy stuff by the minimum and only necessities. Cigs are NOT a necessity

It never ceases to amaze me the excuses that people can come up with for not doing normal, everyday things... I work full-time, have horses to take care of every morning and every night, have a 2 year old to entertain and supervise and I still manage to keep my 2500 square foot home clean, laundry done, and dishes done.

How on God's green earth can 2 adults who are not working manage to not do dishes or get laundry done??? Not to mention that you also have teenagers in the house who are perfectly capable as well. They are walking all over you Spunki... they are flat out taking advantage and you have every right to be ticked. I'd be starting a chore board, laying down the law. From now on only do your own laundry, only do your own dishes, buy your own food, etc. Make their life miserable at home, then maybe they'll be more inclined to go get a freeking job.

i'm past all this to be honest guys, i'm starting me a savings to get out if things don't change AND FAST. mom made suggestions to help me if i CAN'T make it and safely (without hurting anyone or getting hurt)

it's the house that he and bm bought together, she walked away from and qc'd it to us-though i have no clue where that paper is. i honestly don't want it without him-i don't want a place that big or that far out without someone close by to help me

he can have it.

Just leave! Why do you continue to support them? THIS IS CRAZY. Leave, and let them sink or swim on thier own. Any mistake, except murdering someone, can be undone. and you continuing to stay there and let them leech the life out of you is a mistake. Go and don't look back, before you do something stupid. God didn't put you on earth to be thier slave. I don't pretend to know God's heart, but of that I am sure. Good luck girl.ps- a big amen to daisyduke, laziness makes me all kinda crazy.Kids, job, gourmet cook, animals,clean house, no excuses.

I'll tell you what. . .if the house I live in now didn't have my name on it and I didn't owe 53K on it, I'd leave in the next 37 seconds.

I work for my local county in IT and they have a web app that has property info like that. The web app developer provides many states with this app so it's pretty widespread.
