Hey Woo, I'm so sorry to hear that. I think it's wrong that he is placing that much pressure on you. I don't know the full story, only what you have put on here, but maybe try a trial seperation, it will give you the clarity you desire.
If it doesn't work out and you move in with your sister, see if you can come to some sort of agreement where you maybe don't pay so much rent so you can smash your debt, that way, when you are ready to find a place of your own emotionally, you will be financially. That's what I have done for my sister (6 months at £25 per week, no bills - although she hasn't actually paid any of her debt off).
I really hope everything works out for you.

Hi Woo:hello:
thinking about you and will be all this weekend. Only you know how you feel. Only you can decide what direction you want your life to go. You have been together a long time and sometimes we all take each other for granted. Maybe when he walks through the door on sunday you will have your answer. He must be upset too. Not easy on either of you but he will have to listen to what you feel is right for you.
Well done for getting your payments sorted. Just think how well you have progressed this year. You are very disciplined and not everyone could do what you did since your LBM:T
Take care of yourself and if you need a treat eat the chocs, dont be tempted to go shopping.
God bless

Hi
yes everything worked out in the end sort of we ended up getting married even though we vowed we never would ! and I still cannot say the words my husband without laughing and still use my maiden name ,we had been together for 20 years but old age creeps up on you and the thought of the tax man getting our our earned cash was too much
dont give up on yor debt busting just think that in a years time you will be able to save and make yourself financially secure and not dependant on any one
ask yourself do you want to spend the rest of your life with him
and ask him if he wants to spend his with you
you will be ok x0 -

Oh Woo.............its pants for you, for him and for your relationship but it would be bigger pants if you stayed with half a heart.
Hard hard call to know what is right, but deep down you know/will know what is right
Still all this emotional stuff is very very tough for the toughest of people.............it nearly killed me but I am here to tell the tale and you will be too

Morning
The house is clean in readiness for the girls coming over tonight, were drinking here then going out dancing at 9.30, so much cheaper that way.
I have just painted my nails for the 2nd time after making a right hash of the first attempt!
Heading to The Mall with the girls later, hoping to find some black work trousers in the sale for work, mine are hanging off me now, not attractive!
