My husband is perceived to be a very nice guy. No one knows that he's almost financially destroyed us repeatedly. He took my company credit card, spending $10,000 and losing me a job that I had spent my natural life building toward. He's lost five jobs now, all for theft. The only reason he doesn't have a felony on his record is because I have some close friends who are lawyers and worked tirelessly to help him out. Last week, I found out he hadn't paid our mortgage since 2020 and we owed $50,000 by Tuesday (as in this Tuesday) because our house was in the middle of a foreclosure auction. I actually was able to fix the situation, which shocks even me. He spends his time off watching sports...nonstop sports. I have to fix whatever is wrong with our house, work with our kids, cook, clean, laundry, grocery shop, and I have a full-time and very demanding job. I would leave but I don't know how, honestly, and I can't lose everything I've worked so hard to keep.
My parents did not want children, so they had two 'accidents.' I am the oldest. My mother ran out on me when I was 7. I had to take care of my younger sister. This was a full-time job. She would sneak out and get drunk while doing drugs at 11. My father was extremely abusive, both mentally and physically. He would tell me how much he hated me, that I would amount to nothing since I was a loser. He even told me how he wished I had never been born. I would only see my mother a couple times a year. She was too busy with her new husband, attending parties while he was a grifter. She was never there for me. When we went to visit, it was obvious she really didn't want us there. I think she did it to save face.
