Hello

He made me promises he never kept.
The marriage is two years eleven months now.
We have two dc's 18months and 2months.
I was never happy for 2 straight weeks.
He beat me up less than two weeks after delivery of the younger dc and my tailbone still hurts...
We just had a fight and he says i'm worthless.

I'm kind of numb and i feel like my chest is going to burst any time soon.

I just need some kind words and advice to get through this...

he hit me once when i was pregnant and then a few weeks ago.he's not here now. He's probably with his mother now talking about me. She was the cause of the second violence. She told him they were knocking at my door to say hello and i didn't open it. I was sleeping. He said i disrespected his mother and we started arguing...

It's not his mother's fault. It's his fault.

please seek help from Women's aid. You also need to go to the doctor if you are still in pain. Please get the injuries documented.

You sound better off without the arsehole.

Oh, and do exactly what BeanieB says. If you feel strong enough report him the the police.
