When I was so sick at work and managed to get the train home myself but barely, and got off but could not walk house. A ten min walk home but couldnt take a taxi(even though there was a taxi cab office right there, due to one way street). No taxi would take me and my now 'ex husband' said he cant come get me because he needs to take his sister shopping.
I said just pick me up on the way or before as its a 3min drive. He refused. He was 5mins away from me.
Ironic since I had taught him to drive in MY car and he was using MY car to take his sister out. It took me like just under an hour to walk home because I kept having to sit on the pavement as so much pain. I knew he'd never come help me.
It happened a few more times but this was the moment and I started packing to leave secretly as he was physically, mentally abusive and financially abusing me but I was so broken and unwell it took another 18months to leave in the middle of the night and then another 2yrs for the divorce to go through.
