Please help me. I want to have a good marriage but it is terrible.
We have two dcs aged 3 & 1, and I don't want to break up the family.
Me and DH of 6 years have always had a tumultuous relationship - a lot of misunderstandings. I Can't even write this it's been such a bad one this weekend.
I arranged a babysitter and we went to a party - v rare that we go out together. Had a lovely time - lots of laughs. On leaving, DH took a turning into a housing estate and I said no, I want to stay on the main road as felt safer. He carried on his way, and I walked towards home on main road. Had hoped he would join me.
He caught up with me after 10 mins and was justifying his choice of route. I restated I wanted to stick to main road. He Kept on at me about it, until I lost my temper and slapped him. He then got very angry and I ran but he caught up to me and punched me in the head and knocked me down.
We had both been drinking - 3 or 4 beers.
I feel really low today - can't talk to him or anyone. I don't want my sons to grow up thinking married people are constantly at odds as we seem to be.
I talked to a man at the party - non- threatening, much younger than me but just a nice conversation. Could this have a bearing on what happened later? At the moment DH and I only really talk about domestic stuff and kids.
Thank you if you've got this far. Do you think I have to end it with him?
