I am married with a child, but I am not happy. The reason I say I am not happy is that my husband is really frustrating me. I grew up in a domestic v!0lence household, and I have a lot of trauma from that experience. I never received any fatherly love. My husband cheats, drinks to the point of stupor, and abuses me. We both used to share the bill payments, but recently he stopped working, and I have been the only one paying the bills. I have a shop, but I still work for others (cleaning, styling). We have been married for two years (I was pregnant before we got married).
Even at our traditional wedding, he told me he didn’t want to get married anymore, and I had to beg him along with some of his friends. Since we’ve been married, he has never supported me in anything. He has never even given me a small amount like N1k to make my hair. I just think he doesn’t love me. Recently, there have been some issues between us, things we could have easily settled privately, but he would rather go out and tell people and his family. I’m not the type to talk like that.
Even though he has been treating me poorly, I have never told any of my family members. He knows the only family I had was my mum, who is now late. I am not close to my dad due to the trauma he caused me as a child. Whenever my husband reports me to his family, they always blame me. Right now, I don’t have anyone to talk to. I am seriously depressed, and it’s affecting my health. I have been having chest pains lately, and I don’t know what to do. Please, I will be in the comment section. Thank you so much for your time.
