My husband left last fall to start a band at age 50. He left me with his grown daughter and our 7 kids under age 11. He came home before the holidays and agreed to try to work it out.
After spending the next 3 months sleeping 12 hours a day, he snapped, smashed all of our kitchen furniture, and left. I was pregnant at the time.
The pregnancy was ectopic, and I've recovered physically. In the first 2 weeks he was gone he canceled my car ins., dropped my cell service, stole my computer out of the house while we were at church, overdrafted our joint account, spent his $7000 profit sharing bonus from work on tattoos, guitars, a new bed and I can only imagine what else. And I now have. The Court ordered child support as a result of obtaining a full order of protection by his consent.
I am relocating out of state to a farm that is almost rent free as a fixer-upper. It's a mile from my in-laws and just a few hours from my mom and sister. He is threatening me about my move and taking the kids, but we haven't paid the rent in 2 months because I can't afford it. He has agreed to pay me 80% of his weekly pay.
I can raise my kids with family nearby, I can avoid the trauma of putting them in school (and yes, they are very distressed and upset at the thought), and our family life remains as stable as I can keep it.
And for all those wondering and speculating as to his side of the story, I found out last night. He texted a raunchy message to me. Unfortunately it was intended for his 22 year old girlfriend. Yes, 22. I guess we can all agree things make more sense now.
Thanks for the support. I'm sorry for everyone going through this kind of trauma.
