the reason that he left was lame. It sounds like he was looking for a reason to go...
You have children who need you; I urge you to take action ASAP. Dont wait around, hoping and wishing for him to come home. You cant allow yourself to be scared of what he might do or say in regards to you seeking legal counsel- you are a grown adult, and only YOU are responsible for yourself. This man doesnt control you; at least, he shouldnt control you. Take back your power!
If you feel that you cant do this for yourself, then I urge you to do it for your children. As a parent, I know that you want your children to have better then youve had. You want them to grow up to be healthy, happy, respectful and productive members of society. You do that by being an example for them. If you continue in this relationship the way that it is, you are teaching them that it is fine to intimidate/threaten the people you claim to love, and they will grow up thinking it is normal to disrespect women. They will grow up, seek out a mate, and repeat this dysfunctional pattern for themselves; I know that you want much more for them. That means that you have to take action now. I wish you the best- your babies need and deserve financial support! Also, if your husband wont give you concrete reasons as to why he isnt coming home, the reasons cant be good. If they were good, hed be speaking them. Hes hiding something. It is time for you to take control of your life. I wish you the best!
