Moving out might provide physical detaching, but I'm not sure you are going to get what you think. However, your MIL doesn't need to have financial control.
I'm concerned that you are planning all of this and yet you don't know the first thing about setting up your own place. I'm afraid you are bitting off more than you can chew. You need to have a well laid plains in how you will do all of this....and not just jump out there....thinking it will all work out.
MrD,
How about thousands of "you can't be serious" in words, body language, tone of voice, sexual startup and intentional shutdown at period of penetration over a several year period of time. My ex, who brought me over to db-land was getting off on the neglect and abuse. So I know exactly how you feel.
Today, I tell men and women, that even an average relationship is lightyears better than a bad one.
I wish you the best, your attitude sounds positive and constructive. Sandi2, I know what you are saying, and it's nothing I've done before(living on my own). It is not really what I want to do but I'm stuck in this sitch. Emotionaly I'm pretty good at being detached, other than last night I asked for some sex. That didn't go well, W said; "Really... You can't be serious".
