When a relationship just won't work. |

For a long time now my husband and I have been having problems. (I honestly don’t think we should have ever gotten marred in the first place). After the birth of our son things just kept getting worse. It has gotten to the point where I just can’
t be bothered trying anymore, I had already left him once before and agreed to return on a few conditions (trying to work things out). None of these have come about and things just seem to be getting worse. I recently made the decision that I am going to leave for good this time (I am just waiting for some accommodation to become available for my son & I – one more week). In the meantime I have found out that I am pregnant and now I am more confused then ever.
Although my preferred choice is to not be pregnant (I can’t consider the option of termination) I don’t want to stay together anymore just because we would be having another child together.
Does anyone have any advise or been in a similar situation. Am I been unreasonable or selfish?
I was in a Physical and emotional abusive relationship in which I stayed for my girls. One of the biggest mistakes I ever made. If you are in a relationship that you know is not going to work you should leave if not for you then definately for the children. My eldest was old enough to remember alot of what her father did and she will never be ok because of it. She has had months and months of counselling and where her father is concerned no counsellor can help her she has to find a way to cope by herself. If I could change the pain that she will always feel I would. I thought that by staying with my ex I was giving my girls a mother and a father and I thought that is what every child needs but no child needs to see and hear what happens in a bad relationship so for the sake of your children GET OUT now.
