Poll: Why Did You Leave Your Marriage?

Stbxh asked for the divorce because he was "not happy", "loved me but not in love with me anymore", felt dead inside, needs to move on, blah, blah, blah. All about him and his needs ...not interested in counseling because he said he had felt this way for the last 8 years!! 
Oh, wow, what a martyr he has been!
I had reached the point where I couldn't take his attitude, immaturity, financial abuse and emotional cheating anymore and just agreed to end it. 

Let's see, how do I sum it up in 2000 characters or less?  I'll just list the problems that my stbx has or has done to me:

• Adultery
• physical abuse
• mental abuse
• forging my signature on legal documents
• running up the debt
• she's bipolar
• she's got co-dependency disorder which caused her to drive away every friend I ever had and all family
• she has no idea what true love is which broke my heart.

Too bad we couldn't select numerous entries on the voting.

Where do I start, he verbally abused me from the day we got married.  If he wasn't yelling at me, he was calling me names.  He had a money problem and spent more then we made.  He thought that cheating on me was okay.  He drank and drove and that was always okay.  But with all that, I loved him, I married him and thought that I owed it to our marriage to suck all that up and work through it...  But then one day he said that he didn't want to be married anymore and that he made a mistake by exchanging vows with me....

I left because he asked me to after telling me he loved me, but was no longer "in-love" and he couldn't deal with any of it anymore! He is on pain meds (morphine) thats totally changed his feelings about everything and everyone in his life, but refuses to see this and get help...

I loved this man so much I didn't see or looked past all the verbal and mental abuse.  He controlled and took advantage of me.  He was abusive to my daughter but favored his "blood" son.  Less than 30 minutes a day is all he spent with them.  He smokes pot all day long, never let me get a real job or go to school, moved all the time for inconsistent work.  I'm 26 with nothing -  beat up car, horrible credit, no job, no education, etc.  But at least my kids are safe now ....
