You might want to start your own thread, you will get more responses.

Is he in prison now? Are there any minor child involved?

Rgray, it sounds like your life has paid the consequences for his poor choices.

You don't have to continue like this. If you don't know how to start over on your own, perhaps call a women's shelter and they can help you find resources to start a life on your own...and with your children if you have any. Women's shelters have access to all sorts of help for women like you. You don't have to be abused to qualify for their help. Maybe find one in your area and give them a call.

Hugs

He is living his life the way he choices, when are you going to start?

Let him go, save yourself, get emotionally healthy and live YOUR life to the fullest.
