Quote From: casee699Being in a mentally and verbally abusive relationship myself
I can say that it's not always easy to get up and leave
in my situation, I have three kids , no job and no family of my own
other than my 3 kids (4,6,8)
I have talked to a lawyer but I can't afford to pay for a divorce and I believe
I can't do it on my own because he'll fight me on everything
so although before I was in this situation I felt like you should just get out it isn't
always so cut and dry
He's got you right where he wants you - - believing that you can't make it without him. Get the phone book out and look for help. There should be a legal aid serivce in your area to help with legal fees and you can get a job. Two of your kids should be in school and since your income is non-existent youshould be able to get child care based on that. Don't make excuses! Go to a shelter. Believe in yourself. Stop being a victim. Go to a shelter, they will help you put your life back together in a way you can manage.
WE CAN ALL MAKE IT!
