Also maybe if you sit your wife down and give her a full financial picture instead of going all "don't you worry your pretty little head" she won't freak out just because the numbers are large

I think the chances are good that this guy's business isn't as successful as he says and he's hiding it from his wife.

Seems to my simple mind that if you have to regain your sanity by taking a job with long hours and constant travel to get away from your idiot husband and his Autistic niece
you may as well go all the way and divorce.

Some very good remarks in the comments. The kids don't want to be around stepfather and Mom has been letting this crap go on for far too long so they don't

Counterpoint that 100% makes me an rear end in a top hat: these people are not her therapist. In a retail environment her coworkers have been saints to do what they've done. She should not be dumping this on people who are also likely barely keeping it together. That's what therapy is for.

I'm a rear end also. We have to take into account that the coworkers were subjected to years of bad news about the now-deceased husband and were now hoping for an end to it instead
of becoming grief counselors for the next months or years.

"I used to have to move around every year/two years or so for a bit, owning actual furniture instead of fiberboard crap I could abandon on trash day"

Last time I had to move across the state I either gave away or threw out drat near everything I had rather than pay to move old furniture. I bought
all new furniture for the 1st time in 20 years and spent more for the good stuff now that I'm older.

Guys like this never seem to realize that if they aren't pitching in on chores or child care, then there isn't much reason to put up with their lovely behavior, especially for someone like OP who has another place to go.

The fact that he was ready with some big rant about how things were going to be in their house now that she's pregnant is pretty chilling. Good on OP for getting the gently caress out of there, and I hope she continues to trust her mom's instincts.

Very telling he waited until she was pregnant to let his real self shine.

The thread on Reddit is very cheering, for all the grimness of the topic. Absolutely unanimous, pulling no punches, no equivocation, no 'therapy, marital counseling, love language workbooks'. And so very, very many personal stories of abuse escalating massively at pregnancy, backing up the stats of pregnant women being killed by male partners (with sources duly cited).

Yes, it's so horrifying the advice is to abort and go into hiding. I don''t kneejerk recommending abortion but this rear end in a top hat makes me afraid for the mother divorced or not.
