Thank you for all the replies. CutenessANR, sorry to hear you've been in a similar situation. I'll be heading down to the citizens advice centre today, try to find out what my options are. Last night was horrible. He spent the whole time upstairs, then I came and slept in the spare room again. I'm sure this evening he'll expect me to stay upstairs. He keeps acting as if I'm the one in the wrong and getting angry and defensive with me. He said he'd fight for me and this baby, but I've seen no sight of that. I refuse to have him blame me, because he got caught out. I really wish I did have somewhere to go. I was going to go stay at my mums for the weekend, but my step sister is staying for at least a week, so no room for me. No idea what to do with my poor cat. I couldn't imagine having to rehome him. It's all just such a mess. He hasn't even apologised to my face, I don't think he's sorry, I just think he's sorry he got caught. Again. He told me last night that the rent is due on the 1st, and he wants half the money, knowing I haven't got any. Since I lost my job, he pays the rent/bills and I pay for the weekly food shopping. Apparently if I haven't got the money, he wants me out. The upsetting thing is, I'm not even sure he'd really notice if I left. He'd spend his evenings playing his xbox after work, go to bed, repeat cycle. The only difference would be there'd be no food in the house, and no one to tidy up after him. I had to carry the bin out last night, which was really heavy, as I've been asking him since Monday. It's been full and starting to smell, but its always 'in a minute'. I love him, and I always said I didn't want to be a single parent, but I can't see any other option. x
