I have finally hit the end of the road with A

I want to thank everyone for the wisdom and support I've found here over the past few weeks.

My AH and I have been back and forth between divorcing and trying to work things out while he continues to drink.

Today I said the wrong thing and he exploded. I saw a side of him I've never seen before. He's been verbally abusive in the past and I'm sure I have been too, but today I was truly afraid the abuse could become physical. He has such hatred for me. It was good for me to see this side though. After seeing it I know I will never take him back and I will always know I made the right decision.

We told our daughters tonight and he will be moving out in the next week or two.

I am grateful that I've learned what abuse and manipulation are, so I could identify when it was happening to me. I'm grateful I got out in time. I'm grateful I won't have to live this way anymore even though life will be hard for a while.

Thanks all for your support,
Chelle
