I don’t know what to do

My husband and I have been together 8 years and married almost 5. When he goes for a night out it sometimes turns into 2 or 3 nights and and when he would come home he would be really twisted and hateful. When I was pregnant with my 6 y/o he came home and started punching holes in the doors. He’s threatened to hit me and has come close once or twice. To combat this I started staying away from home when he went out but then I would get the phone calls. This doesn’t happen that often. Maybe 2 or 3 times a year. When sober he couldn’t be more apologetic and sorry. I’m just so fed up living my life wondering when he’s going to drink next and what he will do. I have a son and daughter and would be horrified if my son treated a woman like that or if my daughter allowed herself to be treated like that. He’s quite manipulative and spoiled. Do you think I should leave him?

Yes.

I would not put up with that selfish behaviour and that coupled with his aggression would seal his fate and I would leave him.

Please leave him, this isn’t healthy at all

He knows he behaves like that when he is drunk.
So he should stop drinking.
He doesn't - that's your answer.

Definitely leave, no one deserves to live like that.

I really think I will. I always said I would never let anyone treat me like that. I would leave right away. I haven’t been very strong but I’ve protected my children the best that I can. I’m going to be starting out from scratch again. I work full time but have no savings at all. Has anyone any advice on how to go about all this. Thanks for advice. Sometimes you just need to hear it from other people. Have never told anyone else what he’s like.
