I was fed-up with W and I had packed things to leave. W told me to stay but the thing that stopped me from leaving was that I couldn't leave the kids too. W left days later (but I now realise that she had planned to leave for months and explains why she had been so bad towards me) and took the kids.
I am afraid of losing the kids. I am afraid of their feelings being hurt. I've been a SAHD and we are extremely close. I don't want to be a Dad that doesn't see their kids much. My Dad wasn't around for me much. I want to be there available for them every day. I want the kids to have their mum and dad together as a proper family. I don't want the kids to lose their home.
"your willing to be treated like sh*t from someone who clearly does not respect you"
Before W left I told her that I wasn't willing to put up with her behaviour, that I wanted a soul-mate. After she left I've been to court to stand up to her over access to see the kids. W now seems to resent me even more.
