I have no friends to stay with. My dad is very, very ill with a bad heart and I can't go there. My step-mother is very "anti-helping," especially when it comes to me. My mother-in-law lives with us and helps me with the baby. I don't have anyone else that can help me with the baby. I can't leave my job (which also I'm very unhappy at work, and constantly on edge, stressed, and feeling like a failure there, too,) and I work 40 hours a week. I can't quit because we'll all starve.

Recently he said he was going to leave me. He doesn't think I take his side when his mom gets mad at his behavior, and I should... he didn't leave. But ever since then, I just kind of feel empty and like I've already lost. I just feel like he may say 'I love you' but he doesn't like me at all. Like I've always told him he's my best friend, and he'd get annoyed because I don't think he realizes we're not just supposed to be married, but also be friends, too... So I think that's why he was able to just abandon me like this because I was never his friend... just the girl he married.
