Just read through your diary. I hope the estate agents have somewhere available for you to rent. If your OH did find a flat himself, will you be able to stay where you are or is that a case of all talk and no action from him. Been in a similar situation myself...paydbx2025 #26 £890/£5000 . Mortgage start £148k June 23 - now £138k.

Hi, 4853Emma I have read your diary so far and it saddens me to think of the way you are living . Before you leap though please make sure you can afford your rent payments , I would hate to think you were making things worse .
Do you own your house with husband or rent ? Just thinking of if you sold would you have any equity to start again.
I will assume you are on the south side of the big town, referral to Alderley Edge , he has expensive taste your husband.
Posting here will help you get through , good luck with the move if you go ahead.Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.1 -
I hope you manage to get out in the month , what a plonker the husband is, I think you are well rid. Sorry if that sounds harsh .Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.1
