Hello! I'm new here, looking for support. I haven't filed yet. I know this sounds dumb but I want to get some things together before I leave him. I haven't called an atty yet and hope to do so soon. We have 3 kids under 11. I have been with him for 20 years, we met in high school. Married for 15 years now. I'm tired. I'm tired of verbal and the pushing/shoving that happens. I'm tired of being treated like a slave rather then a partner. I don't want counseling I just want this over. He has warned me that if I leave and he finds me I'll be dead, the kids too! I'm scared, I do work but it's a brand new biz so I haven't gotten paid yet. SIGH! I'm worried about how I'm going to make it. He has been the breadwinner for 11 years. I've never been on my own. I just know I'm tired... Thanks for listening to me ramble. Any suggestions or tips from anyone are appreciated.
Find a way out now!!! If there is physical abuse or death threats, the local district atty should be able to help. Get a n abuse prevention order to keep him away and go stay with someone he wouldn't suspect. If you can prove the death threat have him put in jail.
Welcome to the forum! I haven't been here long myself but was referred by my sis who recently went through divorce. So far it has helped me a lot.
Be careful and be safe.
