Dreams gone sour



It was a lucky draw when we met online.... chatted for a few months and then met at a public place. Date went so well that after I felt like this was the one.


We dated for a year and a half prior to getting married and time went by ok with ups and downs. He made me feel lucky and loved but I struggled with his addiction to alcohol. We married and have been for 8 years.


he begins to do less things with me, being less caring and starts verbal abusing me when he drinks. As the years pass he gets violent by breaking doors, pushing, yelling, and out of control. This happening when he is under the influence of alcohol. So he promisses to stop..... 2 treatments later, months of AA and he keeps getting drunk and putting it as a priority where family, kids, home are not important.


Now 8 years later, 2 kids and tired of verbal, physical abuse, other women and after many broken promisses and lack of support I have finally kicked him out. I am feeling soooo lost, confused and scared on how I am going to do it and what is now going to happen. What do I do? what steps should I take? my kids? home? everything?
He just left today.... and my heart broken, empty and feeling down.


Not being able to financially support my kids and how they will react to it. How is it going to affect them?


He just left... I have kicked him out before and months later I am stupid and take him back
This time I do not want him back and I am tired.
