So this is long... Sorry in advance.. I have been with the father for my kids for almost 3 years now. We have a daughter together and are now expecting a son. We are no longer in a relationship but are living together. He started to put his hands on me when I was pregnant with my daughter. I never told anyone I just always accepted his apologies. He then got into an argument with my mom and wanted to fight her. I still didn't do anything. We moved into our own place in June and he thought I was cheating on him with one of my coworkers.
I do talk to this coworker often. I'm not gonna lie. I had a lot of pain and I wanted to be free of him even though I'm still in love with him. A month ago he saw I was still texting him and he threw all of my belongings off the balcony in our apartment. He clearly has a lot of anger.
I came back and things have been peaceful even after he told me he slept with someone after that whole incident.
Well tonight we got into it again even though we aren't together about the same guy. He busted my lip and gave me bruises on my wrist as well as ripping my shirt while trying to get me out of the house. There is a huge hurricane I'm not going anywhere. Anyway he comes out and apologizes and then quickly turns it on me saying I'm trying to play the victim. I honestly want to run away and be free of all of it. I make enough to support myself and my kids. It's just much easier said than done. Just had to get that off my chest. Sorry it's a little scattered. Don't really have anyone who I can speak to about things like this.
