Beloved of All
I'm at the final breaking point in my marriage. My husband and I have been married for eleven years and I can't do it anymore. He's not a good man, and I have to lie to his face telling him that he is. For the past eleven years he's has been emotionally abusive to me, and I've gone a long with pretty much everything he says or does, even so far as allowing my emotionally and physically abusive mother in law deeply involved in our marriage. The last year I thought things were getting better between us, until I found out that he and my mother in law have been talking smack about me behind my back and basically saying that my husband doesn't owe me anything. You see, my husband has been in between jobs over the years and has had difficulty with them, he wants to move down to where his mother in law is, even though I've set a clear boundary of no cause of how I feel about her. Turns out, they were plotting behind my back to do that. My husband is telling me that it was just an idea and not to give it much thought, but I've seen the texts between him and his mom about me. I'm so done. I'm so over how he's treated me, how his mom has treated me, and this whole marriage. I've wanted things to work, but he refuses to do counseling or therapy, and refuses to go to church now. Please pray for me, God hates divorce but I'm miserable. What do I do? God help me.
