Oh god I'm sorry, I lived with one of those too. You're right to leave, find somewhere safe. Good luck.

You don't deserve to be treated like that.

I know. I think I've finally realized that, too. I asked my mom if I could stay with her and she was like "we have a full house tonight." Really great. Last night she said she would always be there for me.

My dad isn't answering his phone. My best friend is in Vermont. I don't know what else to do. Nick stormed off somewhere but I'm just emotionally exhausted and don't really want to be here when he gets back.

Just leave and go to your moms, she said she'd always be there for you so remind her of that, she's the one who said it.

I think you kind of need to just get away all together.
Like I just told you on AIM, I'm only going by what you've told us
but it doesn't sound very loving over there, he needs to respect you and get more control of himself and his emotions.

My opinion is, if you're staying for the baby, you shouldn't. It's better to be from a broken home, than in a broken home. You know what I mean? A child doesn't want to be around it's parents fighting all the time and calling names and storming out of the house, thats really really scary.

I don't know what to say to help you other than counseling & maybe staying with your family for a while (even though your mom said it's a full house.) You don't like the situation, so the only way to make it better is to change it.

We <3 you.

terra i couldnt have said it better

katie babiies can tell when your sad or frusterated. the thrive and rely off of YOUR mood. so after the baby is born if nick makes you mad/yells/screams/whatever the baby will be caught in the middle of it. he wouldnt understnd all of the yelling. he would be scared. and then if you get frusterated he would stress out Sad

My mom is at my aunt's. I can't just go there. Sad Also, it's like 40 minutes away and I have an eighth of a tank of gas. I wouldn't make it. Everyone I've called is either busy or not answering.

I have really crappy friends.

Go to a hotel then? I'm sure it seems kind of silly since it'd just be you and that's like 50 bucks, but he needs to realize that he can NOT treat you that way and get away with it when he gives his little apology. Saying "i'm sorry" means you will try your hardest not to do it again, and it doesn't seem like he tries very hard.

If you're not happy, then you just need to get out. If you don't do something about it, you're just going to become more unhappy almost by the minute. & It's not healthy for a baby. You've got to do something for yourself & your son, Katie. Don't degrade yourself by letting him treat you badly. You're better than that.

katie
have you looked into gov assitance or a womens or pregnancy shelter? or a crisi center? i bet someone would seriously be able to help you there. maybe apply for govt housing assistance or section 8?
that way they can help you get a place to go while you get back on your feet

thanks, suzy. we are waiting to hear back from HUD, actually. i want to just do it by myself, though.

i tried calling a shelter the night nick got arrested but they said i seemed safe, so they couldnt do anything about it Shocked

i just don't understand. i want to cry.

I've been right where you are, and now looking back 10 years on it, I remember how hopeless and hurt I felt. I wish there were something I could do for you other than tell you it can be so much better. Things will get better.

I don't want to seem rude.. I really, really don't. But it just seems like you keep making excuses, Katie. That's really not healthy. I understand that you're a strong, proud woman.. But if you need help, you should seek it out, ya know? I don't know. It just seems silly to suffer for no reason.

I know. I just thought it sounded like I was making excuses, but I'm really not trying to. I'm being realistic.
