wow, ok lets clear a few things up....
OK I had no idea the would be so many replies to my post. I appreciate all the thoughts and concerns and advice, but I just want to clear a few things up...
1: The youngest child is his only. My daughters have a different father.
2: We have done plenty of talking and discussing things to make it work. I'm not just trying to verbally bash him. Im not like that.
3: It isn't that Im afraid to leave him or don't have options. Im not proud to say that I already have to do the food stamps thing, but I throw away my pride to feed my family. I want to try to and make it work because I do love him. There are good aspects to him. He just doesnt let them show as often as the bad ones.
4: I'm not claiming I havent done any wrong. I have. And I work on it daily. Not easy to battle depression and BPD on top of all the extra stress but I do it. And hold back on alot of things I would like to say because one of MY biggest problems is not thinking before I speak so I do my best to control that.
5: As for my job, my hours will be moving up from 3 days to five and i should also be moving from getting paid 8.50 to 10.00 so that wouldnt be an issue if I ended up breaking up with him. I could support my kids and I just fine.
Again, I didnt think there would so much output from everyone when I posted but thank you again for your advice. I have a few new ideas now and I feel better knowing there are other women that have dealt with/are dealing with my same situation and that there are men out there that are different. Maybe one day I can find one.
