Another stupid mistake

Just got payed and decided it was time to get my husband (Joe) meth addict , off our checking account , just in case. Joe said he would never touch the account, because all the money is mine( not theres that much) So i went today to change it over to just my name, and that S.O.B. TOOK 80 DOLLARS on Thursday. My electric bill money. I know i shouldnt have believed him, feel stupid once again. How could he, im having a hard enough time making it then this. I did text him and told him off but good. Havent hear nothing from him, didnt expect to anyway. But i was so mad and hurt. Hes off the account now and dont have that to worry about it now. But im so furious. Need to calm down and think. I wont let this happen again, lesson learned

It's difficult to keep control over everything when everything has got so crazy. Well done for changing the account. The day I opened my new bank account so my X couldn't get to it, I felt so empowered. Even for the simple fact that I did it all by myself- he had me believe I couldn't do anything alone and I always needed him to speak for me.
It's very difficult to deal with the lying and stealing, isn't it? I personally almost found the stealing most heartbreaking out of everything (beyond the parenting issues). The first time I realised that the man I trusted to look after us and make everything ok has stolen my money and left me with nothing, I was destroyed. Every single time after that it broke me again and again, until eventually I grew used to sleeping with my money under my pillow. That's even sadder than the fact of him doing it I think.
Now he's broken that 'barrier' there's nothing to stop him doing it again, is what I mean.. I think.

Open your eyes, think with your head..not your heart. He does not care if you have money or not, he does not care if you are living in a box on the street, he is an addict...he doesn't not care about anyone but himself...face it, accept it, protect yourself and your remaining assets.

If an (active) addict's lips are moving, they're lying. Never forget that.
