Thank you for your thoughts Open Eyes.

If your husband grew up with an abusive family he may struggle with not feeling good enough for you and sometimes that turns out "for some" to be a life long battle and they simply can't have a healthy normal relationship. He may have had the same problem with the mother of the older children he has.
I am very concerned when you say it's "your fault" he slapped you or got angry. It's simply not the case and no person should be hitting and yelling.
Keep in mind, there are members here that have experienced abuse, they know the red flags and they know they WANTED things to be ok but it simply did not happen and they had to get away and sometimes it's ugly when an abuser knows you are going to leave them.
