Hi, My husband and I have been married for 10 years and we have 2 young boys ages 3 and 7. Things have been pretty rough from the beginning. He is a cop and is very unaffectionate. At the beginning of April he came to me and told me he was unhappy and has been for 11 years and was trying to figure a way to make things fair for me and the kids. I am 31 and he is 45, so I tried to play it off as a mid life crisis. Things have not gotten any better, but now he tells me to get out of "his" house and leave "his" car. I still live with him but we do not speak to each other other than when we have to. He says he feels sorry for the boys and it will tear them apart. I do not know how much more of his threatening I can put up with as far as everything being his. About 2 weeks ago he told me I was nothing but a piece of shit! Even if he wanted to work things out, I don't know if I can ever get over the things he has said to me. I feel like he thinks he can do or say whatever because he is a cop. I was thinking about going and staying with my parents, but I am scared that will be considered abandonment. Any advice from anyone?
