How can I say this....
I wanted to take the time to let all of you know that Im am in the process of separating from my husband of 13 years.......Although its never easy to do something like this, its proving to be much harder for me....I unfortunately have an unbalanced husband who has been known punched me in the face because I didn't want sex with him......So leaving will be rather difficult, not to mention heartbreaking and uncertain.......My emotions are a roller coaster, and fear takes over anything else at thins point.....I am NOT leaving webnaughty or my responsibilities, however, I may not be around all the time like I usually am.....I will be in and out for the next couple of weeks, but I will be back and ready to be myself soon enough!....This place is the one place I can go and know that I have support, so leaving will never be an option for me......
I have gotten many letters from friends that I just have not been able to answer just yet, but please know that its not because I don't want to, but because I just can't right now......
I know Im not the only one in the world going through this, however, I am in a situation where its only going to get worse.....My husband is a very revengeful person and he is not going to just walk away without a fight.....And yet, there is NOTHING to fight over, he has already put me in a position where Im going to lose my house and my car......

Re: How can I say this....
I am here for you too. I too am considering separation from my wife of 29 years. It will be a difficult time for me so I think I can relate to some of your feelings. My feelings for her are not the same anymore and I feel the need to start over anew either alone or with someone else. I do want it to be a cordial separation but one cannot always expect things to go the way one prefers. Maybe we two can lean on each other through each of our ordeals? I hope it goes over smoothly for you and please be careful. Once an abusive man always an abusive man. If he has hit you before he very likely will do it again so do get away from him soon. I will be thinking of you.

You know how to reach me if you need to. Just say the word & I'll be there for ya. But whatever get the hell out of there. Physical abuse isn't your duty to take. I didn't grow up seeing it, don't like it.Your main concern at this point has to be yours & your kids safety.

Please be safe however you decide to do that, listen to that little voice inside you that says --- "I am scared" and do everything you can to be safe. The most dangerous time for a woman is when she makes the decision to move on so know that I am here for you and so are so many -- let us help!

If there is violence going on there, in the house, consider leaving the house immediately....if you fear for the friends or family that you could stay with, go to a shelter...even if it means going without internet access and visiting here...we'll all still be here, and remember you when you have things in order and can get back to us, don't give it a second thought, especially if you still have children at home with you.
Start working on getting past this part of your life, and seeing what's ahead for you and your kids...the violence and fighting over "things" is just a last ditch effort to keep you in his life, and therefore, under his control, so.....sadly, it's gonna be up to you to take back all control here...
With a violent spouse, there's no room for being wishy washy about anything, it's USUALLY best to break all and any contact as soon as possible, and may be necessary to make sure any contact is documented and handled by a third party (IE..the cops) and not by you directly....
This is just some advice, and I cannot offer it without stressing how important it is to contact an appropriate hotline or public service agency that handles this very same thing all the time and can give you the best guidance for dealing with this in the most sane and safe way...

Re: How can I say this....
Awwww dammit! I have been refraining and restraining myself from ranting...but ....what are the statistics??? 1 out 3 or 4 women have been, are or will be abused by their spouse? That is just sick...
I've been there, twice...never again...
Kitten, do a google with keyword phrase "advice for abused women"
You're strong enough to take back control.

Re: How can I say this....
You guys have no idea how nice it is to see you all come out to support me in this really bad time!....I have taken all your advice and support and all of it was very thought out and sincere!....Thank you!......I have looked into all of my options, and social services will take care of my children and myself!......Its amazing what they do for women out there like us......I never knew it, and wish more did know about it.....They will provide me with housing, electric, fuel, food, and money......Because of being a domestic violence victim, they also break all the rules and qualifications....(not that I needed to bend any rules, but they won't make me work, and I still have my little one at home and couldn't work even if I wanted to!)....Its a hard step to take, but like I said, Im not the only one who has had to do this, and there are many more out there that should be doing the same thing and just can't!.......
Im grateful, I have been giving the courage to do this......How ironic that the one person in your life that has caused you the most pain, is the one that has also been responsible for making you an independent person!.....Capable of leaving the very same thing you were stuck in because of your lack of that to begin with!.....
Thank you all again so much!......The support you have given me was enough to help me smile everyday and if you know me, you know I love to smile!!....

Hi Kitten,I,like all the rest of the good people here would like to wish you the best of luck and hope it all works out for you and your children.Nobody male or female should have to put up with any kind of abuse.There's a lot of good men and women out there,and when the time comes,I hope you find one of them and if I can help in any way,please let me know.

I mentioned the statistics before, and that makes this a good topic, not only for us to show NYK our support and love, but also because there could be many women logging in here, and maybe reading this very post that are in the same situation...
For them...go ahead, reach out to us, we'll do what we can to see you through it.

You must take action for yourself. No one ever needs to be a "punching bag" for any reason. My thoughts and prayers are with you through this as I'm sure the whole WN family is too!
If you want to talk or need any advise (for what it might be worth) please don't hesitate to ask.

I, for one, am with you on your decision to move on. For him to raise a finger to you, is unexceptable PERIOD. My mom told my wife, right before we got married, that if I was ever to lay a hand on her, she was to warn me to sleep on my stomach and with one eye open!! I am not a violent man (a lot of long walks after argumnts) and besides, my wife has a lot of sharp knives in the kitchen that can be used for: cooking (ours), body modifications (mine) and/or for euthenasia procedures (me again).
My wife and I have a great relationship (30 years) and I love it. I still don't know why men treat their wives like shit. Hey, if your not in the mood to fuck because you don't love him anymore, he's got to realize this and straighten his ass up!! If not, it's time for you to move on. Hey, there are a lot of men out there who would worship the ground that you stand on. 36 yars old?? Hell, your a catch. Your at the prime of your life. Screw him.

Re: How can I say this....
OK, here is my update.........
I was able to get help from an advocate!......Her job is to come with me to the court house and help me through the process......I have gotten temporary custody of my children......Tomorrow he will be served with papers to get him out of the house.......He will have a restraining order as well........I made it so that he had to attend classes about being an abuser, and I also made it so he has to have a psychological evaluation to fix his medication......(I did that for his own good, hopefully he will understand what he has done wrong.....).....He can only see the kids right now through supervised visitations, and the court will appoint someone for that......His family has threaten to take the kids away from me, so it was very important I went to get custody today.......It has taken a while to get used to the fact that I have lost everything, but the most important thing is that I still have my children, and better to start REALLY fresh, with nothing, then to never get the chance at all!......I will keep you guys posted, and I appreciate the support, and the understanding that Im not around too much right now!...........
Hope all is well with everyone!.....See ya soon I hope!

It is very hard. I'm going through a divorce now. It took me sometime to be able to leave him. Just became incompatible.
I truly feel sorry for you and your children. Divorces generally are not good for most, but being abused is terrible!
You are in my thoughts. Stay strong. The road is rough, but, it will become smooth. It will take time.
Keep your chin up and spirit.

Re: How can I say this....
Ohhhh how I miss you all!...I have been spending all day and almost everyday at social services to get the help I need, and running around with the three boys......And as much as I hate the fact that I have to use the system right now, I have realized that I am who it is there for!.....But I will say that its about 100 times worse than the DMV....
I have become very strong throughout this process and my children seem to be so much happier......
I will be back very soon, have to go to court tomorrow to finalize everything, and then I should be on my way!.....Thank you for all of your support!....You have no idea what it means to me!.....Just remember, this was your ONLY break from me!....I will be back in full force by next month and as usual with a huge smile on my face!......
I hope all is well with all of you here at webnaughty!....
