If your husband tells you that “he is counting the days until he can rid of us” you must leave. To me this sounds like a true threat and the many ways he can get “rid of you” is too freightening to think of. Call your parents, call a friend, buy a bus ticket, just get out. Your husband will never take you seriously until you stand up for yourself and the welfare of your child.

Agreed. If he truly is bipolar and is saying that he wants to “get rid” of you, GET OUT. THEN, tell his doctor and have him committed. It may be necessary.

I want to thank you guys for your prayers. I wanted to update. The time is coming up where my husband says were are “over”. One minute he’s great, the next he’s giving up on us and mad because I made spaghetti for lunch and I should have known he wouldn’t have wanted that.

Then tonight, we were watching something on Revelations, and I said to him doesn’t that scare you? Why don’t you want to go and clean up your act, get blessed in the church and stop using bc? He said I don’t have to do those things. I said well you will be sorry in the rapture, but if that happened hopefully you would turn then to God and save yourself from hell.

His response, “I’m already in hell and I’ve been there for the last 7 years being married to you” :crying:

Then he’s joking around 5 minutes later. What is he in male menopause? Now he just told me he’s counting the days (literally) till he gets rid of us.

This sounds like classic manic depressive behavior and may be grounds for nullity. Check with your priest.

I don’t understand, honestly, why you are putting up with this behavior! Do you like being a doormat? What is wrong with you?
Get out and don’t look back, is my advice. Take it for what it is worth.
 
One more voice … GET OUT!

Nothing is going to change until you do. You have grounds for a decree of nullity, You are (I hope) young enough to start again.

This clown isn’t going to change anything until you do.

Sorry if this is harsh, but if you stay it is your choice, and you are choosing to live with this abuse. If the worst happens, you chose it, and you deserve it.

She doesn’t need to be concerned about grounds for nullity. She is married to a Catholic, but not in the Church. She is in an invalid marriage and need to get out ASAP.

To the OP, I know that this overwhelming, but you have got to STOP what you are doing. Things are not going to get better. You need to find a way out of this. Contact a domestic violence center, contact a lawyer, contact your parents or a sister. You need to stop living in such a situation. It is dangerous spiritually, emotionally, and even physically for both you and your son.

Take a step today. Talk to someone that can help you find a way out of this ASAP.
