Today is the day. Either I take the money out of his account or I don't. My plan is to leave Monday and stay away for a month. I really have no other options. I need to take enough to cover expenses. I'm afraid, but I'm more afraid of what will happen if I stay here. Time away is what I need.

I'm not a battered wife, at least not physically. There's just way too much friction and it's not healthy for me or the kids.

Just as a guide but not legal advice, take all the money you can get joint account or not. If it gets to that point, assets will be divided. But, I need to ask you a question. Why is a month your time horizon? You need longer term plans than that. A month is not time enough for your guy to improve his behavior and for the relationship to mend. If you must leave find a shelter for abused women (even if you aren't "abused") and sort things out. We (at least some of us) care and you can message us.

Just take enough to cover expenses. I would assume if you can take the money out,it is a joint account...not HIS as you said. So either you take half - or take what you need for expenses. It's ultimately up to you.

if you are leaving go somewhere he cant find you like a womans shelter.And i think i would stay away longer then a month i would make this when you leave to be the last time you see him.Because when u come back in a month that may be the last breath you take so i would go and stay gone.I wish you the best of luck get out and dont turn back.Be safe

If you know you need to leave, then do it! If I had the money to leave my cheating husband I'd do it right now! If you're married to this guy and you share the account, take what you need and leave him a note on the bathroom mirror. If you don't look out for you and your kids, who will?

It is ine thing to run away and another to know what you are running away from. Fear is a terrible thing as you may agree with me. You want to run and you want to come back after a month, that sounds funny. If what you are running away from is that bad tell the authorities. You are merely postponing the problem. Allow relevant agencies to intervene.

Take the money and run. Once you're out don't return. It will be worse than before. I've been there, I know! Just go!

If the money is yours too, then take it. If the money's not yours, find another way, but get out.
You may find you don't want to go back, because it's nice to not live in fear.

if it is not a joint account and he gets really mad he can have you arrested for stealing the money out of his account
