I was stuck in a relationship like this for years, highly emotionally abusive. I too would not sleep in the same room with ### any more. I was getting a little mushy about him because it is nearly his birthday, but your post reminded me what a horrid human being he was and how much better off I am without him. I also understand what it is like to be under somebody's thumb because of money. I was sick, and I could not afford to live on my disability checks alone. So I put up with a great deal of abuse in order to stay alive. I have emotional scars and low self-esteem from this that I don't know if they will totally ever go away. I pray your husband will repent and come back to you. I also pray that God will let you know if this is not meant to be. I pray for great improvement in your finances, that God will bless you. Maybe if you are able to get a job, you can get out from underneath this domination and abuse. I am poor now, living in low-income housing, while ### is in Florida, prospering as a sun glass mogul, a business his brother set him up in. Sometimes I get very angry about the unfairness of it all, but at least I am free now. That is worth more than any amount of money in the world. Praying very hard for your intentions. Am praying for you in the name of Jesus of Nazareth. Amen and amen.
