I’m with a guy that is a really bad alcoholic. We dated for a few months and then moved in with me. Now that I realize what a loser he is I want to leave, but I can’t financially afford it. I am 23, work full-time, go to school part-time, and have a 3 year old from a previous relationship. I made it on my own before, but a lot of things have changed since he has moved in. Someone hit me and totaled my car so I had to buy a new one and have a car payment and higher insurance for full coverage. I used to receive day care assistance, but I don’t qualify for that anymore or public aid, but I only make $14/hr(they determined that I didn’t qualify and I didn’t mention his income). I know if I leave I won’t be able to afford my rent and day care and bills and food/gas. I don’t have any family around here to help me. I need to get out. He is a serious alcoholic and I am afraid for me and my son. Last night he came home drunk and was walking around the house naked and urinated in the kitchen garbage can. He was making so much noise that I was really scared and thought about calling the police. He’s only like this when he drinks. Plus he watches my son a few days during the week so I don’t have to pay so much for day care and wathes him when I go to school. I just don’t know what I would do without his help. What should I do, I don’t want to be stuck any longer.
