Your mind can make up millions of excuses to stay somewhere comfortably uncomfortable instead of uncomfortable change that can make your life so much better. You're currently uncomfortable enough to ask Reddit for help and there really is no solution except for ending it at some point. He's not going to suddenly start paying his share of the bills, looking after his daughter, cutting off gambling, erasing the fact that he stole from you, becoming truthful, etc. If he cleans up his act, seeks help for his addiction, and becomes a better human in the future, so be it. But that won't happen with you enabling him.
And also, if it's your dog, “he will want to take them or my dog” means nothing. It's your dog. If you think it won't be safe to try to leave him, have a friend with you when you tell him the news and tell him you will be taking YOUR DOG.
It fascinates me when people change their user names and then post the same weak post. I don't understand the motivation at all.
OP, why?
Were you going to say something helpful?
updateme!
Accept his help – he owe you. Reorganise your life after this is over. It is your right. Most important is your health!!! Push the rest aside??
How shocking that a sexual predator has those numbers in his phone.
Don't let her manipulate you because that's what she's doing. Your gut is telling you something, it's not right.
If leaving is not an option the get tested every few months when she goes to her home town
Having emotional boundaries.
True it's no point to wreck your head about it
