I am in my 40's and have never had a boyfriend until two years ago. mostly because of my fear related to my past.
Well we get along great and have spent a lot of time together including many many vacations. the problem is! when he drinks he gets so angry!!! and starts screaming and cursing. In the past he has screamed and cursed about work, or political things, but this last time he got drunk he started cursing and screaming at me about me. I hung up the phone and have refused to talk to him since Am I wrong -- should I take his calls. I lived my entire childhood and teenage years full of severe and traumatic abuse and vowed never ever to take it from anyone ever again. Am i going to far in the other direction? Am i being unreasonable? |

No, I'm afraid what this is going to snowball into.
How long will it takes before he starts throwing things? Punching walls? Throwing things at you? Punching you? Don't put yourself in this position. I got a bad feeling about this. Use your gut instinct. |

no, vanna, you're actually being reasonable for the situation. i hope you can keep the distance until and if he gets help for the drinking. some ppl simply can't drink.
i'm proud of what you have accomplished. you're a strong woman.

Vanna, I don't think you are being unreasonable. You've been through it before (sorry to say) and know the signs, right? If you feel uncomfortable, don't reinsert yourself into that situation. Take care of yourself. </font> |

I cannot answer for you. All I can say is if you feel you have to keep your distance, keep it.
Stay safe while you can! (((((((((Vanna))))))))))) Time0 |

No, it doesn't seem like you're being unreasonable at all. You're doing what you need to do to protect yourself.

No Vanna you are not being unreasonable. Foremost you need to keep yourself safe. It is his problem not yours that needs to be corrected. I hope he gets the help he needs. Please be safe.
