  • Awww, honey that's not good.

    Firstly I'd go to citizens advice to find out about the mortgage thing, but I reckon even if you're not on - it but have been contributing - you will probably be entitled to something if it's sold or have some rights.

    Secondly, you'll qualify for child tax credits, help with rent and probably a reduction in council tax - see your local council and explain your situation, they should be able to sort you out with accomodation, even if it's just temporary. I'm not sure about working tax credits, do you work? You'll probably get some income support also.

    Things happen for a reason so try not , easier said than done, get too down about things, try to concentate on your kids and Christmas.xx
  • hey hun !! awww big hugs ..
    im so sorry this is happening to you ...but be brave!

  • Hi thnks girls
    The reason i didnt feel myself is cos he told me that he didnt love me about 4wks ago then he came bk to us and said he didnt mean it but i couldnt 4give him 4 saying that,yer i do work on maternity leave at mo plus its only 1hr a day so dont really pay to good x
  • Oh huni, big hugs to you and your children.
    Hopefully things will start to look up for you soon.
    Take Care xx
  • Sorry you're going through this. It's hard when you've been with someone a long time. You have to think about yourself and your kids now hun. Happy parents make happy children. You said yourself that your 4 year old is heartbroken again - your OH is playing games with you and the kids. You're not a commodity - don't let him treat you like that - you're worth more than that. I'm a single mum - although slightly different circumstances, it is hard work and sometimes I want to tear my hair out but I know I am happy and that my kids are, too. If your OH says he wants to come back again, take things slow - after the hurtful things he's said I'm sure it'll take more than he didn't mean it to forgive him - again. Good luck hun.x
  • Oh hunny he really is behaving like a pig to you I can't believe he slept with you and then had the nerve to say that to you the next day. I can totally understand you being scared of doing it on your own i have two as well and its bloody hard work even with a partner but thats no reason to put up with the kind of treatment he's handing out. I agree about going to the CAB just so you know all your rights and entitlements. Think about you and your girls now and if he does decide to come back to you again and you still want him make him bloody work for you. Take care hun and be strong its going to be hard but you can get through this . Thinkin of you Jenxxx
