OP here. I'm surprised that so many posters think that I should divorce. It is difficult when our lives are so entangled, and we have a young child. I'd much rather try to make it work [/quote]

Your husband doesn’t respect you. There’s no way around that.

I can understand that this doesn’t seem like an emergency situation where you need to leave immediately but it’s a shitty relationship. Now that I’m older, I can appreciate the difficulty of disentangling a partnership and giving up half my time with my child. I’m not sure if I would jump to divorce either.

However, I would go in survival mode in the marriage. Emotionally I would be protecting myself and I would start planning to ramp up my earning potential. Make sure you are always involved in your financial planning and invest in yourself heavily. Max out your retirement accounts. Start savings accounts in your name. Invest heavily in yourself. For example, if you need a masters to get a better job, do that now and pay for it with marital resources.

The main take away is that your husband does not respect you. Your marriage is not a safe relationship no matter how much you want to sugar coat it. Maybe the actual divorce doesn’t happen for 10 years when your kid is out of the house, but the laying the groundwork starts now. [/quote]
