I have posted here before. I moved out of my lovely family house at the beginning of last month. STBEXH, drinks heavily, has a failing business, enormous debts and more importantly was verbally abusive for a long time. I have two sons, now 12 and 18 who also suffered by living in such a hostile environment. Myself and the boys have now moved into a small rented flat, made possible by a loan from family and housing benefit. My eldest son has told me today that he hates the flat and has no respect for me and only pretends to like me. He thought I would changed when we moved, but he feels I am still negative and not motherly. I fear he may be right, I too thought I would feel such relief after the move, but in truth I feel miserable and incredibly insecure about the future. Does anybody else have a similar experience and does it get better?
