Hello all, I am currently a stay at home mom who filed for divorce. For the last few years my stbx would leave and not come home for up to a week at a time, I later found out that he had a drug problem. I'm an intelligent person but for the life of me I don't know why I waited for 2 1/2 years before I made the move to divorce him. It took me that long to gather the strength. Well, since this time my stbx has taken all of our money out of our joint account and will only "take" me to the store to purchase necessities. It is humiliating, we are currently living together until the divorce is final because I have no place to go at this time.
I have goals to go to nursing school, write a book and continue to be an excellent mother. All of which are within my reach but I have no stepping stones for when the divorce is final. I'm so affraid of the divorce - my stbx tells me that I will regret divorcing him (in trial) but I have done nothing wrong in our marriage. This man was gone for 2 days prior to Christmas last year - not exactly what I want my child to ever have to experience again in his whole life.
I want to be able to get on my feet and get my son into a safer enviroment. If you can contribute - I will be greatful. I have no idea how this works - I have no intention of being needy the rest of my life. I have clear plans to help me attain the future that I need. Nursing school costs just under $8000, which I find amazing - I thought it would be more. If you contribute - I will happily send class schedules or grades as they come.
Being a mother has given me strength and courage that I never had before and I look forward to my bright future.
Thanks for reading and please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
