She sounds like she is an addict. Staying up all night gaming and chatting with guys while having full time job and a teenager at home, even if she wasn’t married, sounds absolutely ridiculous.
As with any addict, is it alcohol or drugs or gaming or sex, healthy relationships are not possible.... unless they seek help. You can’t make them though
If it’s jointly owned house do NOT move out. No way. It would be different with rental. Also, do you feel unsafe? If you don’t feel unsafe, I’d refuse to be invisible in my own house. Is this 30 year old the same guy who is coming to visit her in person? I wonder if that’s why she wants you out of the house
14-year old shouldn’t live like this. I am sorry you are in this predicament. Unless she seeks help with her addictions, I am not sure what could be done

Yeah I posted too much in the introduction thread, when topic-wise it belonged here.
She stopped parenting the 14 year old about a month ago. Doesn't check her grades or homework anymore (and she's struggling just to get Cs), doesn't make her clean her room or bathroom or enforce chores.
