Had what started off as a discussion with my husband (over lack of intimacy) and it digressed into me complaining about how he always says he'll do something but then never actually does it... just agrees with me to get me off his back in the moment. He got angry and was making excuses for why he hasn't done X Y and Z that he has said he'd do for years... and I was still angry when I left so I slammed the door on my way out... as I walk to my car I hear the front door open and then I am pelted in the back by something, and turn to see he has thrown a full bottle of milk at me! If I was hit in the back of the head and not just my back I'm not sure what would have happened, but it felt a little too close to being an assault to me.

He got angry and was making excuses for why he hasn't done X Y and Z that he has said he'd do for years... Perhaps there are reasons why things don't get done, perhaps he needs some help from a professional builder, electrician, mechanic, landscaper, financial advisor or what have you.
Perhaps now you have got the childish stuff off your chests you can act, speak and think more constructively? |

Honey you are being physically abused. I would call the police and immediately got out. When did it happen? Just now? You aren't safe.

Speak constructively? I don't see how one can speak constructively after being hit with a bottle?

Agreed.
If it was a satchet of milk or something ridiculous like that I could, probably would brush it off as a childish tantrum. But a *****ing bottle??? He crossed a line hun, best you re-draw that line in the sand,and make sure he knows which side of it you're on. Oh and in answer to your question, I would not react well, if he were my husband he'd have a milk bottle break over his head. I don't respond well to being attacked, I have blind rage reflex reactions that are usually way bigger than the actions which provoked me. Your husband should count himself lucky.

I withdraw and start thinking about what steps are necessary to leave.

Are there shelters where you are at or you have any family around? I would not stay there at night.

If it were just a bunch of yelling and bickering I would hop in my car and leave for the day but if they get physical with me in a way that could be a threat to my well-being, I would get physical back.
I would get away from him for awhile. |

I reacted to physical abuse by divorcing my abuser.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
