    What a total loser. This man will never understand what he's doing until he's left with nothing, you'd be better taking your child and getting out of there, sooner rather than later. I really feel for you 'cause I understand you feel like you have nowhere else to go and you'l never find anyone else, but believe me you will. You're young and a brilliant mum, what does he have going for him?

    I don't understand how 2 adults and a child, with only 18 hours wages coming in can afford a 4 day bender. We're 2 adults with one wage coming in and couldn't afford 2 nights out in a row.
    The frontier is never somewhere else. And no stockades can keep the midnight out.

    Sorry-this is getting too far fetched now. People, including myself have problems of our own-which we are trying to work through.

    Fact- he is a pi**head
    Fact- You are in denial
    Fact- Your son is at risk
    Fact- you're a dramalama

    Sorry folks who've tried to help, but this is a circle which is going tro keep happening. I'm not playing anymore

    Hmmmm I said this two days back and someone complained and had my posts deleted :rotfl:

    can i just ask if you are on speaking/ friendly terms with his ex partners, if so, then maybe they can give you advice, you can learn how they got their lives together again ?

    Know exactly where you are coming from there- we rarely go out anymore cos we're always skint and we BOTH work!!

    Leo's mummy I think you should concentrate on sorting yours and LittleOne's lives out rather than posting on here, teling us what you think we want to hear:cool:. If your OH DOES leave (and I sincerely doubt he will as he is playing the guilt trip card massively) you need to stay strong and concentrate on raising your son. As I said before, your parents will probably breathe a sigh of relief if you do split. I'll dare bet a your family and friends saw straight through him ages ago.:(

    OH has admitted he drinks too much, says he will leave tomorow.

    Yes, and I'm the queen mother.

    I don't believe for one minute you're having a discussion about splitting up, while posting on here at the same time. If that is true you're not even giving the situation your full attention yet half an hour ago you couldn't live without him.

    Do everyone a favour and forget this thread, it's getting beyond ridiculous.
