I left my husband in Feb 06. There are many reasons why I left him, but the biggest concern was on the day I did leave, we woke up to no heat in the house because he didnt pay the gas bill. This sort of stuff has been going on for years. I would come home to no water, the house was sent to the forclosure process THREE times in 2006, my 6 year old daughters school sent a letter stating she wouldnt be allowed back to school if the bill wasnt paid. I mean on and on! So why do do I feel so GUILTY for leaving him? We always fight about it, and he will say,...yea I screwed up our finances, but its not a divorcable offense!! The man is close to $200,00.00 in debt! Hasnt paid his taxes in I dont know how many years. Spends money of "fun" things and not important things. Our two children haven't had health insurance in a year! I know this sounds like I shouldv'e done something about this, which I did. I got a job against his wishes. We always discussed me being a stay at home mom and agreed on that! What is with this GUILT???? When it started to affect my children, that is when I decided to leave! I am SOOO looking for someone to tell me I did the right thing! He's not a bad guy, just a JA!!! I wont even go into our non existant love life:)
Finanical irresponsibility is a manifestation of emotional immaturity. It is a perfectly good reason to divorce, as its effects are mentally and emotionally abusive.
