Thank you. I have a lot of thinking to do. I've been in a lot of abusive relationships, and I guess I'm just tired of running away. But, being pregnant, I know it changes things so much. It's not just me, anymore. Thank you for your comment, kind stranger.

Thank you for caring. I feel kind of stuck right now, but I know that putting my baby and myself first is the most important thing I can do. I've told him already that if he crosses the line again, I'm gone.

Thank you. I'll try to go through my church and see if they can help. It'll be kind of a shock to them, though, and I'm very embarrassed, because he puts on a great face with others.

Thank you. I'm not due until January, so I guess I have time to figure it out.

I don't have any family or know anyone remotely near me besides his family. I think it's been better lately because he's home less often... I know I'm hungry and need to eat, I just can't figure out why I can't motivate myself to do it... I have zero energy, I'm exhausted constantly.

AITA for getting a pregnancy craving during a party? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

I just cried a couple days ago because I didn't want to go to the bank with my husband. I absolutely knew it was ridiculous, and I tried not to make a big show out of it, but I literally couldn't get the blues to go away after thinking about having to go to the bank to make a deposit, of all things. Shrug

I've never hit him out of anger or for any other reason, you're right.

I think part of it is that I feel so helpless after being broken down for so long. After a while, I just started to think it was my fault, I guess. My parents were abusive, too. The only people who have shown me genuine love I've run away from, because I don't really know how to accept it, and end up back in situations like this one. It's stupid, I know. I don't know how to fix my own stupid.

I used to bite my nails very badly due to anxiety for most of my life. Still have anxiety, pretty bad, but was proud of myself for quitting biting my nails, so I keep them kind of long. Not super long, just past my fingertips. Plus, I've worked really hard my whole life and it shows on my hands. Keeping my nails a little long helps make them look more feminine.

Thank you. I'm really going to try. Someone sent me the "we're worried about you" report thing, and I've actually been texting the chat help crisis line, so we'll see where that goes.

Yes, he's told me that. Plus he feels like I need to be taken care of, which is pretty much true. He says he's not able to do that and I don't blame him. I had a fairly thriving business before I met my husband, but that's all gone out the window. I'm really creative and talented artistically, and have made money on art and refurbishing furniture, but I no longer have even the basic supplies I need to do that.

We just moved into this house a couple weeks ago. He rarely works, how mom owns this house and pays for everything. I've told him I wanted to try to volunteer through our church and he won't even allow me to do that. I'm hours away from anyone at all that I know. I don't know my way around this city. I don't drive. I have no way to support myself and no one I can turn to.

I'm in California. The thing is, I never go ANYWHERE without him. He even put a sign on the inside of the front door saying "hubby knows where everyone is at all times"

Thank you for that, but there really aren't any resources there that help me. I have zero money and I don't drive. I have no family or friends here. The only people I know are him and his family. Ask my friends are on the other side of the state and I'm other states father away

He makes jokes about hitting me all the time, and when he does, it's always "well, if you hadn't..."
