I have posted my on-going saga on here before, but I thought I'd catch you up on things to date. My husband has not worked in a year and a half. He is an independent contractor and he hasn't been able to find work. When his last contract ran out, i immediately went back to work, even worked two jobs over the holidays to make ends meet. The only reason we've been able to survive this long is that his parents are paying all our bills and giving us money to live on. He has basically been a housewife instead of helping us out financially. Also, he has been working on his dissertation for his PhD for the last ten years! And is no where close to being done with that...so every semester we get a new $10k bill to his school for tuition because he won't finish it. So basically we are deep in debt and he won't help, just sponging off his parents and having me work non-stop. I want to leave but I can't afford to move out....not sure what to do. Should I secretly go to a lawyer to check out my options? Part of me is afraid to be alone again...like I failed in some way. Is that something you just get over once you're single again? If it weren't for the financial crisis we are in I would probably stay married to him forever, because I really do love him...I'm just so disappointed and depressed now. What can I do to feel better about moving on...the whole divorce idea is like an emotional hurricane I'm heading into and I'm scared. Any advice?
Put the internet to work for you.
