If the man you are with is very controlling and doesn't accept you for what you are, then it's time to start planning to move on. A loving relationship is one in which the mate offers support and encouragement.

I don't know what he says to you but you need to figure out if his words are legitimate constructive criticism, where he is really trying to help or if they are belittling, demeaning comments to make you feel bad. These are two different things.

If you find that he is truly unkind to you and that you are not happy, then do your research and planning so that you can move on. You could look into low income housing and other assistance for those trying to get on their feet (food stamps, etc.) Or perhaps you have a friend or colleague who could share the rent in a small 2 bdrm apt.

Good luck to you

It seems like you have a lot of insight into your situation and I think you know what you need to do, you just need to find the strength to do it! Life is too short to waste with someone who doesn't make you happy.

Is there any way for you to save enough money to move out? Have you thought about finding a roommate through craigslist (be careful and do all your investigating into credit history, lifestyle etc.). It's a way to usually get in somewhere for less than getting a place on your own, a way to make a new circle of friends and start over fresh!

If i was in your situation, I would defaintly spend alot of time praying to God and asking for his help and guidance. I believe that everyones been to that point in there life when they either have given up, or are about to, and I also believe the only one who can truly help us in this kind of situation is God. Trust me, I've been there...and He helped bring me right back up on track where I needed to be.

You have know family members or close friends you could stay with until you got on your feet? I would not stay with a man that put you down and that you argue with. He does not seem to show you any respect and you deserve that. You might also check out the YMCA in some states they allow you to stay while prusuing a job.
