What do you think you should do?

You have your own answers, you just want us to tell you your right based on the story you gave us.

There is always two sides of the story, but since we only have yours. That is all we have to go by.

GET A DIVORCE. Never stay with somebody if your being emotionally and physically abused.

If he is phsyically abusive, he will be again, and emotionall abusive is worst in some ways.

Unless he is willing to go to couseling and try and work on your relationship, for your own safety you need to leave, ( personal opinion) using very general info and completely perosnal opinion.

Dear really confused,
I am wandering why did you get involved at such an early age with this adult? (16yr vs 21)? I suppose that many mistakes were made because of the age difference. Regardless of what happened in the past, it is your present situation that baffles me. I have two words for you "Get Out!" You must realize that you and your children's safety is what matters now and nothing else. You made the statement that you wanted to make it work no matter what. let me ask you a question. Is your life or your childrens' lives worth living. Now, I don't know the whole story but i do know that the ground is filled with woman who keep giving emotional/physically abusive drug addicted control freaks chance after chance. you better wake up, honey. this is not a fairy tale and he certainly is no knight in shining amour. By the way, I would hate sex too if I was being physically and emtionally torn down.

You can be abused forever, or you can be sad for now and find peace and happiness later. Get out and find peace and happiness. Your still young.

hey are you the same user that wrote the original post cause your user name is different.....i will say one thing though....i was once told a reason why i couldnt leave my ex and when i did why i felt so depressed was because i loved him and even if there was abuse in the relationship, there was the fact that it was my comfort and security zone....you have been with him for a while and you have it in your head (maybe) that he is your security and comfort,,,,i did and when i finally realised that in an abusive relationship there is no comfort or security i moved on.....it was the best thing ive ever done in my life....
good luck to you in every aspect.....
