I am thinking, 'Why would he think that he was trustworthy? He's the one who has been lying and cheating and doing god knows what. I also just found out he lied to the kids saying that he is working this Sunday when he definitely IS NOT.
OMG! That is so funny! My H did that too at one point. He was literally shocked I didn't trust him-and I thought the same thing, he's been lying and cheating nonstop, but still expected that I should trust him. I don't think they've learned that trust has to be earned!!!
I'm so sorry. He sounds like a typical WAS with maybe some MLC thrown in. I do think they're kind of toxic. I don't think you should feel guilty about moving at all. You are doing what's right for you and your kids and your H will have to face some consequences for his actions. I think that's a good thing.
Congrats to you on handling the tax sitch with your H. It's so hard to avoid falling into, it is like traps or something sometimes. My H always likes to put in a dig about how far out I am b/c I stayed in our town (he moved 2 towns away). I've finally learned to stop reacting to that. It took me a while!
I think you prob. will be a lot happier when you move. It might be the shock your H needs to realize what he's doing and how he's messing up. If not, you'll be better off away from his toxic lying & cheating I think. Karen
