The first thing that you need to is give yourself a big hug from me, There is no "good" reason to abuse another person. and i think you already know that what he is doing is wrong. You need to find yourself a good support group that will help you to break this habit. The abuse never gets better, If an abuser gets away with it the first time, It's like adding fule to the fire. Most often the abuser has there own issues to deal with, But are afraid to acknowledge, That's why they prey on others vulnerabilities, The only person that is going to be able to make sure that you are treated right, is if your the one to start. You are a worthy person, and deserve to treated with respect. Also, Picture in your mind what it would be like if you were to have children with this man and the abuse turned to them.You have to ask yourself, "HOW much more do i have to take before it is enough" in my opinion you have already been to much with this fellow.. Good luck, and remember, You deserve the best!
