I hate my husband.

by Julie
(Colorado)

In the last two years my husband has not had a real job. I work 3 jobs to support the family. He spends lots of money on things he wants. I worked an additional job this summer where he sucked me dry ($). He verbally abused me this last summer to the point I really just wanted to kill him. I even had the plan. It took 12 hours to talk myself out of it. Off and on he is verbally abusive. I have given up on trying anymore. I just hate him now. He really doesn't care about what goes on in my world. Some days I think it would be better if he leaves the house but with two kids not sure if it is best. I pray everyday about this. What to do?

There is always help
by: Karen

Hi Julie,

Get some help immediately. Find a Christian marriage counselor who can help you sort out your options. Nothing can be gained from this situation as it is now.

And when you have kids it makes it even more complicated. Just make sure you and your kids aren't subjected to abuse. If you are, then please take steps to put some distance between you and your husband until you can get some help to deal with all of this.

Hate is a really strong word. And when you're working three jobs, it has to be really difficult. Changing your husband's behavior is going to require that you change your willingness to accept his behavior.

When I say acceptance, I'm talking about making sure he understands that there are consequences for his poor choices. That's what a counselor will help you do as you sort out your options.

But just know that God always walks with you during these tough times. Don't stop praying for guidance. Somehow He'll show you what to do next.

Blessings,

Karen
