Am I giving up or have I tried everything?

Hi everyone. I am almost post 24 sentencing of my OH and I really thought sentencing and being away from him would be the worst but boy was I wrong. We have 2 children together and going from seeing and living with them everyday, to no contact and not being able to live with us once he got out was a nightmare. About 15 months later and we were finally granted to live together and him be around our kids.

We were in an apartment and they didn't allow sex offenders when we moved to offending state so technically still couldn't live with him. After moving my family to a different state, leaving our 3% mortgage rate, got a new house in March and was ready to start our lives over again and hopefully be done with probation soon. OH had a maintenance polygraph and discussed helping our children going potty and being alone with them when I had to leave for errands (with my consent of course, why would I hire a stranger to watch my children???)

they ended up sending him back to jail and we don't know what the outcome will be. He also mentioned still masturbating when it was our own rule not to given the circumstances and trying to stop the porn addiction, which he lied to me about. It felt like all of this was starting all over again and at this point I just want to leave as I feel like I’m being punished for his actions. There is also no trust as he lies to me about everything. Just looking for support and wondering how some of yall were able to continue your marriage after everything.

Hi Kristy - can't help you much as it's our son and we are still going through the system waiting for charges, but I thought I'd just reach out as nobody has answered you yet and this will bump your post up.

I think you might get more response if you repost under general discussion as many people only read those posts and you might get more replies. Also as it looks as if you're in the USA people's situations might be different but certainly there are lots of us who have stayed with partners so would have similar emotions.
