Jealous step daughter and guilty feeling dad

My husband and I have been together for 8 years and only married these last 2 months. For the first 4 years,He lived with me while he went to school. I took care of his kids also when they were visiting with him.I paid all the bills and did all the house work and the yard work. I made pretty good money. The opportunity came up after he graduated for us to move into his grand parents house that had passed away. At the time his kids lived with their mother. The mother then decided to move to another state to marry her boyfriend. His daughter was 19 and in college and then his oldest son who was just starting his freshman year at high school had decided to move in with us. My daughter was still living with us also. She worked full time from home and paid for her own stuff and did her own laundry and helped out a bit here and there. It became a problem when she kept having boyfriends stay the night. One actually stole from us. So my husband then made the rule that no more boyfriends/girlfriends were allowed to stay nor were allowed to go in their rooms. She abided by that rule and then she moved out so that they could live together. Well... his daughter then chose to move in with us because she had lost her scholarship twice. Which was ok so that she could get her crap back together and back in school. Well... then she starts having her girlfriend stay over... they are gay and in a relationship. But she has now having her to stay and live with us now. So my husband allowed it. This has been almost two years now. I'm done being their maid and now that ticked her off. I also had asked her to find something that her and her girlfriend had taken out of my van and that I couldn't find. At this point... she proceeded to go off on me and then say a lot of things that were totally irrelevant to what I had asked her to look for. A lot of the things she said we're not valid and that she just wanted to hurt me verbally. When i confronted my husband about this or any other issue I have.... he takes her side and just says that I'm crazy and it's all my fault. I believe that he is too afraid to tell her that it was totally uncalled for her to attack me like that. And because I jumped back at trying to explain and defend myself to the things she said... I'm the one in the wrong and just acting crazy. I can't take it anymore. I can't talk to him because he insists is just me. And I know it's not. He refuses to believe that his daughter can be that way. He didn't seem to believe me that it's not all me! I don't know what to do. I do not work anymore because he wanted me to quit and said I didn't have to. But then she belittled me for having to ask her dad for money. Which she also does and thinks that she's entitled. I have no way to support myself right now because I just had foot surgery 4 weeks ago. And I was belittled by her because all I've been doing is sitting on my butt in the same place... which is all I could do. But I did manage to still take care of myself and still keep the house clean. I'm hurt, and disappointed in my husband for not once correcting her on any of the things she said. I'm thinking about counseling or or marriage is done.or just leaving.

If you're so miserable and living with his daughter and her GF is so awful, why did you marry this guy two months ago?

That really sucks that your daughter had to move out yet his can stay there with her Gf. And it's even sadder because in my eyes it's like his house, his rules but from your post I gathered it was your house that you lived in together that your daughter had to move out from? I hate the whole different rules for different kids. And he should definitely stick up for you. My partners dad always pulls him up on the way he speaks to his stepmum. Even if he's just a little rude his dad will tell him not to speak to his stepmother like that especially not in her own home. This is when he was still living with them earlier this year.
