Thanks for the support and advice. We did go to counseling for awhile and it was helpful; he just didn't keep it up-ahem-so to speak. This place is too expensive for me to keep, even with a roommate, plus I've never liked the area (the only way we could afford a nice place--bad area!) I was living in a nice little apt. where I could be alone, but I knew most of the people in the building and we were all kind of friends. That was ideal, because I could be alone, but not isolated. Unfortunatley I don't have the financial freedom or I would move out today (so I say). I do know people who have gotten good deals, but they have all been through some personal contact. Oy vey. We just had it out again mid-post. He wants to keep this place and use it for an office; when we're not biting each other's heads off he wants me to wait a month and see if things will work out. He thinks that if he gets through his financial crisis we may have a chance. I think it's probably not a good shot; we have many other problems, and I don't think if he suddenly feels better about his finances everything else will just work itself out. Waiting for that puts me in a very powerless position. I feel powerless anyway. I've got to be able to support myself financially and it's very scary. I'm taking steps to do it, but it's a new thing for me. I'm just scared.
