My husband purchased a small house at the beach approximately 150 miles from our home a few years ago. We would go as a family whenever we could, 2 to 3 times a year for me and the kids, about once a month for my husband. After he was put on disability for mental health issues, he started going more often, twice a month, then once a week, but for the past year he has been there for at least 5 days a week, sometimes more. He changed his address in April, and I rarely see him. It's been 3 weeks this time. When he does come home, he is angry and aggressive towards me. He has literally created another life for himself at the beach. I have never met any of his new friends, or know what he does with his time, other than playing cover tunes on his guitar with a woman he has not introduced me to 5 to 7 nights a week in bars and restaurants. I am exhausted and at my wits end, living 150 miles away from him and being forced to live like a single mom to our autistic adhd son, working 7 days a week, helping my older son prepare for college, and doing everything to run our home. I do not have the money to relocate to the beach. I am super distressed by this situation and just plain worn out. My husband thinks this way of life is just fine and refuses to compromise or communicate with me. I don't know what to do. Any advice would be welcome.
