Hi there i need advice, i am 23 and have been with this guy since i was 16.
We have a child together i got pregnant when i was 16. I cannot find the strength to leave him. He lies to me and i catch him all the time in his lies. For example i gave him 140$ for a bill and he told me it cost 120$ when i asked for the receipt he was mad but showed me it was only for 100$ he was going to steal 20 of my dollars. he is very rarely home and spends alot of our money on drugs alchohol gambling. I know i need to leave it seems like lately i have been catching him in more and more lies his mom even spilled the beans last night and told me he borrowed money from her and told her not to tell me. He kept her and i both up until 330 am cause he went to play poker and she didn't have a drive home this was after she was nice enough to come babysit. if i get mad and yell or try to stick to my guns he gets physical and he made me miss work today. my shoulders are sore from him manhandling me. most of the time i just give in cause i dont want to fight in front of my son and ill do anything to prevent that. im worn out i barely have strength to or will to smile let alone get courage to leave i need any advice you can give. thanks
