My life had truly become unmanageable and I was afraid of losing my job and everything I had worked so hard to achieve, plus it was unhealthy for my daughters (his step daughters). I don't feel like I abandoned him - he's a grown man - he can take care of himself. He did before I came along, he's doing now after I moved out.
My choice was to save myself and find my own peace and serenity. I have no guilt over my decision. I have sadness most days and sometimes anger but never have I felt guilty for leaving.
