I feel like I cant escape a never ending nightmare.
I am an American living in France, married to a French man for the past 8 years.
He has been mentally abusive and sexually promiscuous since day one but felt helpless to leave because I have 2 young children here and no support system other than the family of my husbands.

A few weeks ago I asked him for a divorce even tho I know damn well that I have no where else to go and I find myself now living (seperated) with an abuser who is "miraculously" been converted to husband of the year and I cant stand the site of him. I asked him to move in with his parents but he doesnt want to because he has no privacy there. I want away from him and I am at a desperate point where I will grab on to anything and everything that could get me out of here. I am having so much trouble dealing with the hatred and the helplessness. I hate having to ask him for anything, yet he is the only one who I can ask.
