I havehave been married for 11 years with 4 kids, my husband (we are not legally married and he seems not very concerned about it even after years of asking) spends most of his time outside our home, he comes home after midnight Monday to Saturday (unless he decides to stay home) and stays home on Sunday after church but reading the newspaper, on his phone or watching a movie
for the past 3 months he has really been distant physically and emotionally we never talk, he comes home am already asleep and when I leave for work he is asleep, so no time to talk or do anything, we don't go anywhere or do anything together apart from church or visiting family, I have raised my concerns about this for years but he never seems too concerned
I called him one day and a lady picked up, but he said it was not a big deal, he has been talking and texting this lady (he left his phone at home and I went though it I know I should not have which I normally don't but I needed some answers), when I confronted him about it he got so mad that I had gone through his phone and said he is not willing to talk about anything else, and since i had invaded his personal space there was nothing else to talk about and that was that
I had told him a few months earlier that I was getting frustrated and weary of how he was handling our marriage (never there, no time for me) and so that day I told him I was leaving and taking our kids, he slapped me 6 times and we'll to make it simple "Man handled" me and pushed me out of our kids room since I wanted to go with them
I have since moved to our guest room, I nursed some bruises, am hurt, broke and bruised, I can't stand the sight of him, I don't even want to talk to him (not like he has tried anyway), I can't bring myself to pray for him or pray at all
I need some advice, I don't know what to do
