My boyfriend and I have been together off and on for 3 years and we continue to struggle both because of his depression and alcohol abuse and because of my difficult son. I can say that I love him completely and he loves me. He wants to stop drinking and to be happy but doesn’t know how to get there. He has asked me to support him and stay by his side because that is what people who love eachother do. The difficulty with my son is apt to not get better any time soon as he is 13 and is emotionally disabled. I want him to approach the situation with empathy and understanding but he often thinks my son just needs a good whooping. I just wonder if people should stay together because they love eachother or if it is better to have goodness of fit rather than passionate love.
Im 24 . I have a four year old son. After a bad breakup with my sons alcoholic father I fought him for custody for two years . I won and have been working two jobs and moving alot to make ends meet. I have had lots of relationships where the guy just leaves me . Recently I was with one and had a misscarraige because he threw me out of our home and didnt want the baby. I lost it because of stress. My son and I are alone again. I feel so sad , like im a failure. I feel as if I will never find someone. Im tired of being hurt and seeing my son be dissappointed. I give the world to these men and they just leave me. I feel like I want to crawl into a hole and just dissappear.

Ok, I’m in a tight spot and I need to get some thing off my chest. Any input is greatly appreciated. Well here it goes. I am 31 years old. My wife is 45 years old. She has a history of substance abuse. She used to shoot heroin and smoke cannibals on the streets 24/7 when she was my age.
To make a long story short, I took her from a small city and moved her up to my home town. She still continued to use drugs, but not as much. She has ran up all my credit cards without my consent to get money for drugs. She goes on binges, then stops for 10 months or so, before repeating.
We have a 7 year old son. He is autistic, but doing very well in school. The problem is my wife is very verbally abusive to him and me all the time. She has to be in control all the time. She can be sweet when everything is going her way, but when it is not, or I stand up to her, she goes ballistic. This includes physically attacking me, scratching me, throwing things at me, and punching me when I’m not looking.
Yet she is the one that always claims she is the victim. I have been with her for 10 years and I’m at my wits end, but she is a VERY vindictive, ruthless woman, and I am afraid to leave her. I know it sounds ridiculous, but I am literally afraid of her.
I have to hide in my room and do everything in secret. She can talk to whom ever she wants, but I can’t have any friends without her going into a jealous rage, and even threatening any friends I have had over the years.
My concern of leaving is my son. I do not know what will happen to him if I leave. I have to type really quiet or she’ll kick in my door to see who I am typing too. That’s how controlling she is. I feel like a prisoner.
There is a lot more but I am going to end this post now. I’m at a loss of what to do. I feel like my life is slipping past me and I am stuck in a miserable situation with no way out that wont hurt everyone drastically.
I’m literally considering waking my son up one night in the coming week and flying out to relatives in California just to get some down-time. As much as I’m depressed with it all, I really don’t want to get the police involved but there is a gun in the house.
In the past I shot rifles on a Thursday afternoon as a hobby with two friends. I have a license and all but I don’t know where it is. About three months ago I came home and the inventory room where I’ve kept it for several years was moved around. The rifle is gone and whether it’s in the house or not at this stage, I’m unsure but I haven’t mentioned it to her.
I better end this now. Any advice is much appreciated, thank you in advance for the replies. I’m sorry if this is not the right section.
