My husband only cares about himself and I'm having a hard time

You can do bad all by your self. Sounds like you already ate. What’s the purpose of a partner if he’s not building with you?

Girl if you are already doing it all on your own already you obviously don’t need him. Kick him to the curve you will find someone willing to be all you want them to be. Also in my opinion it sounds like he is probably cheating on you.

Get out of the relationship as soon as possible. You have proven to yourself you am so it all.

So you are doing it on your own, it will be easier if you drop the weight of taking care of him. Go file for temporary physical custody of the kids before leaving him. You will be better off .

Kick him to the curb. Put his things on the porch and tell him to go. You’re a strong, capable woman! You don’t need him to feel validated. You’re already doing it all on your own. Find a man who wants to be a partner and not a teenager. You deserve the world. :heart: Hope you find some peace. Love and Light

I would divorce him in 2 seconds flat ask for 100% custody of the kids with him having every other weekend visitation and get him to pay child support

Kick him to the curb.

Sit him down, have a serious talk with him and put your foot down. He can either be a part of your family or he can go be on his lonesome getting drunk

So why are you still with him!?

I would talk to a lawyer. If he is seeing someone, you can get him for adultery. Good luck to you.

Income brought in from both partners should be household income. I’ve never understood this “hers/his” thing. Should be clear as day how much there is, what is used to pay for whatever, etc. He should also be doing his share of the family/household duties since you work also.
It’s definitely easier said than done, but you need to take your babies and leave. He’s selfish and not putting his family as his priority. You’re already doing it alone, you might as well be on your own and not have all of this anger everyday. You’ll be happier in the end! Good luck x

Personally if you do it all by yourself now. I’d just leave. And make a happy life for you and your babies

Take the kids and leave him. You already said he doesn’t give you a dime for the kids, so you don’t have to worry financially if you leave. It will not get better.

Well, why? Like seriously, why are you still there? That’s not a husband, that’s a roommate. Dude, my husband and I take care of each other. The money we both make is in the same account, when I make money I spend on him, when he makes money, he spends on me and the kids. Groceries, pokemon cards, anything we need, we help each other. That’s a marriage. Not coming home at 3am, over my dead body would that happen for either of us. We prioritize work and the kids and each other, nothing else. That means, we figure out what we wanna do and have a plan set in place so it doesn’t come in between our family time or each others time. Get yourself a new man cause that ain’t one.

I’m exhausted just reading that. Before jumping ship in the marriage, I would try marriage counseling. Then if that dont work, then leave. Sounds like he’s a taker and you’re a giver who isnt confident enough to set boundaries.

Sounds like extra baggage to me, lose it

So why are you with this man child?

This is literally why I’m single. I would ask him to do marriage counseling before I left. I asked mine and he agreed to appease me but never would do it, so don’t get your hopes up on that.

I’m not judging, but you are already single and doing it on your own. You have to take care of the kids;you don’t have to take care of him. He’s like having another child around. I’d give him a choice. It’s all in his hands. If he makes the wrong choice, I’d pack his bag and show him the door. Then I’d file for child support, he’ll wish he had bought some groceries and helped out a bit!

Girl leave him!! If u do all this by yourself now than u can do it all by yourself and be happy. Mental health n happiness is the biggest things. If you aren’t your best the kids pick up on it and before you know it they start having bad times too. You have to be your best for them and you!! Love yourself and the babies enough to walk away and have a nice peaceful life. I know it’s scary but be strong and remember you can do all things!!

If he isn’t contributing to anything other than the roof over your heads, leave him. Some men think that just because they pay the mortgage/rent, that it’s an excuse to be a shitty father/husband.

Since you have a job, just leave with the kids and look into government assistance or low income for housing. Drop the extra 200 pounds girl.

I’m not saying anything every one else has said it for me good luck

No judgement. You said it all. You’re not happy and you don’t like selfish self absorbed people. Since you are already handling everything by yourself, you might as well just leave. Someday you might find the right person, but no matter what when you leave you will find yourself, and self love is everything.

You have already said it, and it’s unhealthy for your children to see this behavior. Do you want your children to grow up thinking that your husband’s behavior is acceptable? If you stay, you have to remember that regardless of what you tell your children, children will model what they see over what they hear. If you don’t leave for yourself, then please do it for your children.

If you’re going to have to do it yourself then you should be by yourself. Don’t let him be dragging you down. That’s not fair. That’s not a partner. Don’t teach your children to accept less. You will be able to give them more happy and alone. No one is worth that heartache.

No judgement at all. But I think it is time you think about yourself and get rid of the extra weight. You really don’t need him, you are already doing everything yourself. Talk to a lawyer and serve him with the papers. Also make sure he gets the child support he will have to give you taken straight from his paycheck because if you leave it up to him something tells me you won’t ever give you a dime. Take a deep breath and trust me, it’s better alone than in bad company

Life won’t change and you deserve better. Show him the door and don’t look back. Get a good lawyer. You’re better off without him. Find a support group to help boost your confidence.

You’re already doing everything on your own so why not get a divorce, seems like you’d be way happier because at least you wouldn’t have to clean up after him and worry about where he’s at. If you need help with the kids maybe his parents or your parents can watch them when needed.

KICK HIM OUT!!! If your supporting the kids , doing all the house hold duties , doing the drop offs and pick ups while studying and working and he doesn’t want anything with the kids or even spend time with you and isn’t contributing well kick him out. You deserve better or you could just STOP DOING ANYTHING FOR HIM no more cooking and cleaning his clothes anymore absolutely nothing and if he ask just say your tired and he is old enough to look after himself

sounds like yall need marriage counseling or a divorce.
