Insulated - We are married, but it is my house that I owned before we were married. He does pay the utilities though. If you have read my previous posts however he is extermely verbally abusive and angry......I wouldn't like to be in his position either, but I'm not sure I can expose our 5 children to the types of behavior he is exhibiting, let alone provide a peaceful, happy home for them with him acting is such bizarre ways.
