My husband and I have been married 1 year, but I have know him my whole life and we have been romanticly together for 4 year (including our marriage.)
He is a recovering alcholholic. He hadn't had a drink for a year except for one relapse a few weeks earlier. He is an aggressive drunk, but has never laid a hand on me before.
He has an explosive temper. When we first started dating, it scared me. My father had been abusive and I felt like I was going to get hurt. Eventually I trusted that he would never hurt me. Even now, after this has happened, I still end up thinking it whenever someone asks if I feel safe to go home.
In this incident, he had 5 beers, and he started yelling at me unprovoked. Depending on what he says, I either end up standing my ground and arguing back, or waiting out his fit. This time I aegged back. He said things that hurt.
I wasn't expecting it. When his hands grabbed me I didn't have time to process. He is exmilitary. He took me to the ground with enough force that I didn't know he punched through our glass sliding doors while I lay on the ground. He was still screaming at me. I got up, telling myself to "move" repeatedly.
I got in my car and drove to our close friends house, barely keeping my car on the road.
I have few friends. The ones I do have won't give me their opinions. They keeps saying I have to come to my own decisions, and they won't help me talk through it to sway me either way.
I just want your opinion. Logic or emotion driven. To help me think about it. Please and thank you for your help.
If he Has not ApoloGized yet and het said things that hurt you Mentaly And Physiclly no u Should not get back with him
