My husband and I have been having a rought ime recently and last night he told me to leave and said we should consider separation. All I did was ask for support in some areas of our relationship, mainly to do with MIL. I wasnt baiting him, but he flew off the handle and became quite arrogant towards me and told me to leave (I didnt, and he says he is sorry) Things are okay this morning but he still insists on discussing things like this in front of our 10 month old baby. He admits he is not coping very well, but says he loves me and has apologised for last night, when he wouldnt let me go to sleep (i was exhausted) and I was afraid our baby would wake up. Is this bordering on domestic violence? As I came to the point late last night when I said he needed to stop or I would have to phone someone for help. I was so desperate I picked up the phone to phone my parents,and the he said if I did that then it would all be over. I didnt phone them partly because I know they would be very shocked, and also because I didnt want more of a commotion that late at night. I have tried to help my husband but we have lost what brought us together in the first place and havent been intimate for months. This probably isnt helping matters, but if he continues to do this to me, then there is not way we will get that back. I need to know how to help my husband, I love him but I am scared when he is like that.
