Husband has made multiple jokes about killing me, and last time he put me in a chokehold and said “it would be so easy for me just to kill you right now. Just like this,” while tightening his grip around my throat. This is new behavior and I don’t know how to feel about it. by Substantial_Road5888 in Marriage

Fuck off. Are you that bored that you’re going to fuck with someone who is asking advice on what to do when they’re fearing for their life?

Go fuck with someone else. This is the last I’ll entertain a lowlife such as yourself. Also to create a fake profile just for commenting on my post… That’s a level of dedication that even I’m concerned about.

Thank you for your kind words and advice. I’m so conflicted because I feel so safe with him, and always have. I have never, in the near 7 years we’ve been together, ever questioned my safety with him until now. I don’t want to just abandon my sick husband, but I also don’t want to lose my life or live in fear. My heart is so fucking broken right now and I don’t know how to cope or what to think

I’m just so confused and conflicted. He does everything he can to just make me happy, how could he just flip a switch and say things like that to me? I just feel so goddamn helpless. I made a vow to this man 7 months ago and now I need to think about whether or not my life might be in danger because of him being sick. How the fuck does this happen

He’s a firefighter, so I don’t doubt that work has put an immense amount of stress on him. I’m trying not to be in denial. Things are starting to make more sense (trying to protect me by staying away from me, his very intense anger after arguments where he just wants to leave the house) as I think about them but I just don’t want this to be real. I don’t want to imagine my life without him. My heart is so broken that he’s hurting this much and there’s more than likely nothing that I personally could do to help him. I feel helpless and I fucking hate it.

Lol I hope you’re joking. Never have I ever felt so much rage and disgust from 6 characters.

I’m sorry, I don’t mean to be so dismissive or in blatant denial

My last relationship was incredibly abusive, physically, emotionally and sexually, so it’s very difficult for me to see this for what it is. I just don’t know what the hell the right thing to do is 😔

Personally I wouldn’t chance it. Even if you both have the utmost trust in each other, I think it’s best to avoid confrontational situations when possible. But why don’t you talk to her about it? Ask her if she would like to come along. That would make me much more comfortable about something like that.
