| It’s not abandonment if he tells you to leave. My husband says it all the time, last time he said it , I moved into a small cabin we own. He’s a narcissist , he’ll never change. One step at a time. |
RUN. |

OP, he sounds like a mean person. Run for your life. People are telling you this over and over again. Don't waste any more years with him, and for the love of God, don't have children with him. Be double careful with birth control from now until you leave.
You deserve it. |
| No kids? Leave this weekend. Get a divorce. |
|
Please please leave before kids.
Ask me how I know this. Leave. Now. |
You need to move out. |
Good!!! |
+1 This sounds like a horrible situation. |
This was my first thought, too. It's classic behavior. Start saving money in a separate account. Remove his name as beneficiary from your other accounts. Start meeting with all of the divorce lawyers in your area (just one meeting, a consultation) so he cannot use them in the eventual divorce. And start making a plan as to leave. Don't let on that you are doing this. Divorce lawyer will have advice on how to gather evidence of an affair. Also immediately get an IUD. You don't want a kid with this guy. Soon this will all be a memory for both of you and you'll both probably be much happier. |
Repeating OP's update for others to see. Yes OP good for you. |
I'm not sure if you are just trolling but OK has described the ongoing history of him saying this to her and finding fault with her over nothing. They've even tried counseling. It reads like classic fault finding in order to justify his affair. I'm not a child. I'm a rational adult who expects mutual respect in a marriage. I've been happily married for 14 years. If my DH repeatedly spoke to me like this, we would have to separate. P.S. I had to.edit the curse word because the forum blacked me from quoting it. |

My ex after getting married told me he'd divorce me if I didn't do what he said. It ranged from home remodeling, to living abroad which was the final straw. He broke every agreement which was another big one. I pretended to go along with him, and went overseas. Then left him and came back filing divorce. It was the best feeling to be rid of him and constant threats.
His life didn't end well which was by his own stupidity. |

I know everyone is quick to say " get out", or " don't take that shit". I've been living that life for 20 year's and it's not that easy to get out. Stay strong, and mostly important,
Stay true to yourself and your children. It's all about you and your children. Protect your kids and your self like your life depends on it. Good luck, stay strong 💓 |
