My husband keeps walking out on me: Advice?

I’m looking for advice as to what to do. So my husband of 7 years is becoming so lazy. I have four kids, one that is only seven months, 10, 5, 4. Throughout my pregnancy with baby y, he kept walking out on me to go live with his mom, then asks me if the baby is his when he no for a fact. But this isn’t the only time we got married in 2014 and was pregnant, and with the five-year-old, I asked him to help with housework, etc. my that’s when it all started. He kept walking out on my children and me. I’ve asked what the problem is, but he just keeps telling me he’s a ** I don’t know what to do. I’ve had two sections as well, and when I got home, he left to do everything. I keep letting him come back for the children’s sake, but I’m just so lost right now I don’t know what to do anymore. Please do anybody have any advice

Jmo…You aren’t helping your children. They see him come and go I assume and I’m sure that hurts not only you but the kids too. If you are already doing everything then why keep him around? Sometimes it’s best to let go.

Letting him comeback makes more damage to the kids, it’s literally the opposite. You need to go to therapy so they can help you gather strength to the right thing not only for the kids but for YOU. You are valuable and don’t deserve to be treated like that. Self love is the Key, he doesn’t deserve you.

I’m thinking that you are teaching your daughters that it is ok to find a man who does this to them, and your sons that it is ok to treat a woman like this. If you don’t think enough of yourself to make your situation better, please please do it for your children!!! Children would rather be from a broken home than live in one.

He is cheating living the single life which is why he keeps asking if it’s his. His mother is probably covering for is rat bastard behavior. You and the kids deserve better. Run while the getting is good.

Leave him. You’re not happy. I just left an 8 year relationship with kids a month ago and I couldn’t be happier.

Do yourself a solid and walk out on him when he leaves next.

Let him walk but lock the door and chuck his clothes out when he’s more mature agree a time and place to collect electronics he’s bought ie games consoles

You can’t continue to build your future with a man that keeps abandoning you!!
Ask yourself one question, if your children came to you with a partner like him, what would you say to them?
We tend to expect a lot more for our children then we do ourselves.
Show your children strength It takes to fight for your own happiness.
Don’t let him back just for the children because they are learning its ok to treat a partner this way.

Get rid of him. Keeping him around for the kids isn’t a good idea. They will begin to learn that this behavior is acceptable and very possibly do it themselves in the future. You and your babies deserve better.

File for divorce, file for full custody, file for child support and take care of you. He does not deserve you or your kids. Get part time help if you need. You and your kids will be better off

It’s time to get a divorce and let him walk away.

If he’s walking out on YOUR kids. Change your locks, file for divorce, and move on with your life. That’s terrible. Make him pay child support too. What a piece of crap husband and father.

He’s actually told you he’s an asshole. I hope you can find some good support systems so you can leave for good. If he wants to be a parent he will, if he doesn’t you can’t make him.

Let him go and change the locks. If you have daughters, you are teaching them to accept this kind of behavior, and if you have sons, you are teaching them that it is okay to treat a woman this way. Let him leave FOR the kids and find someone who will treat you all right.

Where does he get this from? His mom is probably filling his head. Also those who accuse their partners of cheating with no proof or weird behavior are usually the ones who are cheating. Your kids need stability, and they need their mom happy and healthy. He keeps this up cause he knows you will take him back. I wouldn’t even think about taking him back unless he went to individual therapy and couples therapy.

It is NOT “for the children’s sake”. I can’t stand that ridiculous excuse. All you’re doing to your kids is 1) making them miserable and 2) showing them that it’s perfectly ok to walk all over your spouse and be a lazy jerk. Stop allowing yourself to be disrespected like that and stop making babies with him.

Throw him out before he walks out again. You can provide more stability for your children without him.

Kick his lazy good for nothing ass to the curb.

If you dont know what to do who does.If it was me i know what to do

If you really sit and think, you already know the answer to what you should do. Coming from someone who has been in that same situation (my ex husband walked out on me in the hospital, 30 minutes before I was scheduled in the OR to have our daughter) you need to leave. I don’t know if you have sons, daughters or a combination of the two, but he will be the one setting the example for sons on how a man should act and he will be the one setting the example for daughters on how they should expect to be treated. Do you really want your sons to grow up to be like him or for your daughters to grow up and marry men like him because of the example being set? As their mother, it is your responsibility to have their best interest at heart. The best interest of those kids is to see their mother happy and healthy and with a man like that, you can be neither. Not to mention, he walked out on his kids. That’s no kind of man!

Letting him keep leaving and coming back is definitely not for your kids sake. Ditch the asshole.

Tell him toHit the door and don’t come back ever!!!

tell him to go to mummy she is as bad as him for not kicking his ass and telling him to grow up he isnt a teenager

Walking out causes extreme turmoil. He leaves you in a lurch. It’s like poking holes in the survival raft and then abandoning it until you fix it. He’s avoiding the work expecting you to do it and then he just says sorry. And still not contributing.

Believe him. He is an a**. If you’re doing it and fixing it on your own close the door to him. Let him live with his mother who is facilitating his behavior. You have small children to raise you don’t need an adult one.

Dont use your kids as an excuse to keep letting him back. Its going to hurt them more thinking any minute daddy is going to leave again.

Tell him next time he walks, the door won’t open when he tries to come back. Go or stay but choose one.

See a lawyer, get your child support order in place. Next time he walks change the locks. He has shown you exactly who he is. He knows you are a doormat and will continue to take his weak ass back. Understand that you are modeling what a wife / woman is for your children,he is teaching them how a man behaves. Are you the role models you want to be for your kids. Kick him to the curb.Wishing you well.

I dont know why your asking cuz you know what you need to do

Trust me after 9.5 years myself let him walk and don’t let him come back

If someone is showing you their character- believe them the first time. Once an ass always an ass

Divorce him at this point. It’s not going to get better. Any type of toxic of behavior is damaging to the children in that household. Your children will grow up thinking this type of behavior is normal if you continue to allow it to happen.

Stop letting him walk all over you! Know your worth. Toxic is toxic

YOU are a part of the problem. Why do you keep allowing a deadbeat to come back???!!! You’re teaching him that you accept this type of abuse and that it’s okay. You don’t need our advice. You need you get a firm grip on reality and take a stand. You’re being used and teaching your kids it’s okay to be used too!

The problem is that you keep taking him back. When someone shows you who they are…believe them the first time. As well, please stop with for the kids sake. This teaches your kids one of 2 things:
1)It is acceptable to treat people this way
2)It is acceptable to be treated this way.
It usually ends up being the latter.
If you really want to do something for your kids sake…show them that you deserve better and so do they. Change the locks. Stop allowing him to return. Never speak badly about him in front of the kids.ever.
Also, speak with a lawyer…in some states this is abandonment and will give you full custody.
You and your kids really do deserve better!

Wow I just read my life. I gave up on that relationshit. That’s not fun to deal with and he will never grow out of it for you or your kids. So its either you keep doing what you do and deal with it or you finally say “I’m worth way more than this”- and tell him to kick rocks. Whether ppl tell you what to do or not, your decision is still yours. Choose wisely :relieved::wink::ok_hand:

stop letting him back and stop having his kids ditch him your kids and yourself will be better off!!!

Let him walk put & start knowing your worth! Using your kids as an excuse to keep your childrens lil father around is a lame excused too old to use! I will never understand “why” so many keep a lil boy around conceiving children with them knowing they’re not helping & just making their own choldrens lives worse!

You’re doing your children more harm then good by letting him walk in and out of your lives. The next time he leaves, don’t let him come back. You and your babies can do better

I grew up without a mother because my mom was an alcoholic drug user and I would rather have been raised by single parent then by a parent that didn’t want me. It might be harder for the older ones for a little bit but trust me once they get old enough to realize what’s going on it’ll be a favor

Change the locks next time.

I’d be done if I were you. You don’t need that extra stress from him. You’ve got 4 children to look after; he sounds like he just wants to be looked after too. If he wants to run to his mama let him.
