I have been dating this guy for almost two years in the beging every thing was great and now it seems i live alone. He is very emotionally abusive and sometimes physically abusive, i think i love him but at times i dont think i love him like i did in the begining bc of the emotional abusive. what should i dooooo?????
Do yourself a favor and get out of this relationship. It gets worse! Or at least I did, I married a girl, 15yrs old , I was 19yrs. At first my moods were occasional. Sometimes a couple of years in between episodes. Usually we blamed mine on my drinking too much. BUT with age and time my moods got more violent and more often. My wife is the only reason I'm not in jail today. She would place herself in front of me as a blockade to keep me from doing something stupid. I asked her why, many times and her reply to me was because she loves me and did'nt want our sons(4) to have to live with the knowledge their father done something so stupid to land himself in jail.
We are now in our 40's, we'll celabrate our 30th anniversary soon. I've been under a doctors care for bipolar for almost 3 years now . I know I can't ever undo the hurt I've caused in my family, but I do know that my medication is how I keep from being like I was. So there is NOTHING that would keep me from my meds. I thank GOD above that I found that young girl and married her when I did. But I know there has been a lot of her life that she questions herself, WHY did she stay AND was I worth all she's gone through.
