[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish you well but it does not sound like you have thought this through. I would encourage you to decide if you want to be married, or not. Separation is what? Just chaos and disruption. Divorce him or stay, but figure out your end goal for the sake of your children and yourself. Do you have a way to support yourself if you can no longer rely on your husband’s income? [/quote] OP here. So I feel somewhat sure, but my thought process was to separate in order to really force ourselves to figure out what we want. I think we definitely need the space, though. I'm fortunate to have family that I know would help me and the kids.[/quote] You are going to get a lot of comments and feedback saying that you’re nuts to leave him for this. But I agree with you because I grew up with a father like this (maybe worse) and things improved significantly after they divorced. Are you prepared if he becomes vindictive and tries to completely screw you? It happens more than you think, especially with SAHMs. It sounds like you have wealthy parents to foot your legal bills which is fortunate. Have you thought through what 50/50 custody would mean for your children? Of course there is a chance that this chat and separation will have him see the error of his ways and change, but I think that is an unlikely outcome. [/quote]
