Well i can only speak for myself and ive had more than my fair share of cake and wouldnt be too bothered if i never had another morsel. I certainly wouldnt live under the rule of a tyrannical controlling woman just for the sake of some "cake".
Why is it that women assume that men always need "cake" and are always chasing it? Dont women need or chase it too?

How about tyrannical controlling man

Two children, lucky man. When many fathers don't get the opportunities to bring up their loved ones through incompetence through the family justice system and solicitors who are working the system to their own ends. Work harder at it, it brings rewards!

Me neither, I've just had a broken heart and seen people I care about had broken hearts, topics like this make me sad and and angry that I just say what I feel:(

Or should I stay and be unhappy?

No, you should not stay and be unhappy. That's not going to help anyone.

It's a big decision that you're making and I guess is a bit of a minefield.

Not trying to sound rude, but as your wife is going to be running her own home now, surely it should be up to her now to start looking at either increasing her hours or getting a second job? I understand that you want to pay your way as well, but you're not the only adult capable of bringing in income here.

Be careful of those minefields you just stepped in one

I'm pretty sure if this was a woman posting this,everyone would probably automatically assume that the husband had done something to warrant her wanting to leave.

Women leave marriages all the time,and are usually praised for it - for wanting to be independent or ''just not loving him anymore''.

Equality is a fallacy when a man is expected to stay in a marriage he's not happy with,whereas a woman would be applauded.

Well I'm a woman and I'm in support of the OP here - feel for the wife and son involved but he has been honest with her and is trying to do his best by them.

BTW Pssst - I was rather intrigued by your thread yesterday on the above subject - what was behind all that?! - going to revisit it now to see if you've explained!
