Here it is...Separated

I've been reading here for the past few weeks now, decided to throw parts of my story out there. Well here it is, we've been together for 16 years, married for almost 11 years and have 2 kids. I have been burying my head and hoping things would get better, needless to say they haven't gotten better. He started out lying to me from the very beginning about his drug use, we had a child by the time I found out about his lies on that one. It has been non stop lying to the point that I just sat back and hoped things would be ok. I raised his 3 kids from his first marriage pretty much on my own they were a big stress in our marriage. He always said that I was so perfect for him, blah blah blah. If that was the case why weren't me and the kids important enough to him to stop with the lying, drinking, and drugs? He moved out last week and it has honestly been the best week since the last time we split up. The kids seem so much happier, I'm so much less stressed. At this point, I'm ready to be done with everything, I'm in school full time, currently, and not working because I'm in a tough program, and my kids are old enough to be home alone for a couple hours, but still need supervision. It's sad because, he thinks that I'm cheating and has been having me followed, the only thing that is going to prove is that I really don't leave the house or do anything. This is really disjointed, but I just wanted to put it out there...
