AITAH..

Me (f27) and husband (m24) have a rocky marriage. He has cheated on me four times during our five year marriage, one of those times being two days post partum with our second child. We have two kids. I guess I always stayed because I wanted the idea of a family, I wanted my kids to grow up in a two parent household. I was also financially worried to divorce.

During our marriage my husband has verbally abused me and mentally. He would make up lies to his mistresses about how horrible of a wife I am. He even let his family talk horribly about me. I don’t have the greatest relationship with his parents.

The worst of it came when I recently found out he cheated for the fourth time, even trying to get the girl to come to our house around our kids while I was at work. It got even worse when his mom posted pictures of my daughters on social media (I don’t post my kids on social media because of weirdos).. and when I asked her to take it down she began to call me out my name. I was upset. I asked my husband to handle it & he said he would. This morning the post was still up. So I made a fb post about how I was upset the girls were being posted online & laws need to be made to protect parents rights. My husband got upset over the post. Told me to take it down, but still didn’t handle his mother. So I got immediately upset. I basically told him I’m done with this crap, and don’t wanna talk until he’s ready to be the protector a husband should be.

At this point I think divorce is right… I’m just so upset. I just got accepted into nursing school and now I have to drop out to find a good job to support me & my children.
