If we didn't have children together I would leave.

...See more Really it is as simple as that. This is a long story but I'll try to keep it a brief and concise as possible. I met my husband online. It was a rebound relationship for me I was in a long relationship with someone who didn't have the same future goals as me. We married about a year and a half later and I was pregnant right away, I miscarried. He told me to get over it. It was a very hard time for me because I am from a different state and so is my family. I didn't have a lot of support close by and he was not a shoulder to leave on. I got pregnant again within another month. We were having issues though and I didn't want to separate with a baby on the way. That was 5 years ago. We have 2 kids now. I got my tubes tied because I didn't want to have any more children with him. As it is now I feel like a single mom because he works all the time. I have a full time job too. We have been to therapy in which the outcome was that the therapist suggest he work on his anger issue and I "widen my window of tolerance" . I did that so now I either don't care what he does or says or I just am tired of caring. I am depressed now normally I'm just at a chill level. I take anti anxiety medicine too. The therapy got me to I think just not care as much about how he acts like as ass to me and says super dickish things and acts like a fourteen year old. I think he is a selfish person. There's too much to this story I'm just tired of telling it. I love my kids. I want them to be happy. Them having 2 parents that love them is what I want. J want them to be stable and have a stable upbringing. My husband and I don't fight because I don't let it get to that point because of the kids. If we do he can be extremely mean and I don't like them seeing that. I won't lay over and take it but I will give it back and it wouldn't be good. I keep the peace for my kids. I don't know if anyone has experience with getting divorced with a 4 year old and a one year old.. or has experience with staying married until the kids are older. I'm just tired guys. And I feel alone trying to make things work.
