((((( Des ))))) I'm so sorry things are not turning out like you'd hoped. You've been through a lot, and you deserve happiness.... not to be beat on and abused (whether it be physically or mentally). Maybe he's be willing to see a therapist or a counselor or something? Is that a possibility? I just hope you can get things worked out to where you are safe from any type of harm. You are worth SO much more than that. Oh, this is MentalPollution (Jenn), btw.... just changed my name.
