My debt is nowhere near that, but is about 12,000 - he knows about 4,000 of it but not the rest. I could easily see myself letting it get to that point though if I keep letting it go. I have used mine a lot to pay bills, buy clothes for the kids and myself, things like that. Over a period of 4 or 5 years it has caught up with me and now I am making the minimum payments but not making any progress paying it off.
I think like you said though, that my marriage situation is terminal. I am trying to listen to the advice about not staying for the kids because they will be better off in the long run if I don't,but I am scared. In the past I have talked to my oldest child about it, when divorce was looking inevitable and he begged me not to divorce his dad and said, "don't trust him, no matter what he says, he will try to take us from you." My husband has better family backing, better financial backing and a better education than I do. Plus all these years of feeling beaten down have done a number on my self esteem. I am trying to summon all my courage and self-worth to try to fight him in this but what if I lose?
