Leed is right...he defiantely will not change...I have been there too. I went to a support group at the domestic violence shelter. You definately don't need couples counseling. You need to find people in your situation

Check and see if there is a domestic violence shelter in your area. They have support group meetings for women at the shelter and people from the outside. This will give you insight into why you stay and why the men won't change. Please get some help for yourself!! Eventually you will get strong enough to make a more informed decision. Please also do not tell your spouse you are going to any support group. That only causes more trouble!!

Please continue to post to let us know how you are. I finally was strong enough to leave but it took two weeks in a psych ward before I realized I was o.k.
