We have been dating for a year and engaged about 8 months, planning a May wedding. I also have a 4 yr old son from a previous relationship.
I lost my job in July and moved in with him because I couldn't afford to keep my apartment. I finally found a new job a couple of weeks ago. Things have really started to go downhill between us...he has shown himself to be extremely selfish and inconsiderate, but more importantly he has stopped treating his bipolar disorder and his behavior has become increasingly erratic. I want to leave him but I have nowhere to go, no $$ saved and huge debt from being unemployed for 4 months. I know if I tell him I don't want to marry him he will throw me out, but I am afraid to let my son continue to witness his mental illness. I have no family in the area I can turn to for help. I have considered sending him to live with a relative whily I save $ and prepare to move out "on the sly". Any suggestions out there???
