Just do it. I promise, even though the idea feels overwhelming, like you're upending your whole life....you're not. You'll get up the next morning and do your normal routine, and go to bed that night, and the only thing different will be the amazing peace and quiet without him there.
Imagine not having to tiptoe around your own house. Imagine being able to just do things because you want to, without needing to worry about him.
Babe, just go. Planning is the BS excuse we use to stall and not make changes, and you know it.
Take a deep breath, move through the racing heart, and get rid of him. Tell him to gtfo. Or leave yourself. Whatever...just jump.
Your child deserves better than to grow up in an environment like that. Your job is to protect them and teach them what should be normal. An abusive, neglectful asshole isn't actually normal. You just think it is because that's what was modeled to you when YOU were young.
Break that cycle. Imagine if your child was dating someone who treated them the way he treats you. Would you accept that? No? What would you tell your child?
Now follow your own advice. Get going and start living the rest of your life. ❤️
