Hi my name is Gwynne and I've been with my boyfriend Eddie for almost 3 years.after about two months of our relationship he started to become very angry and controlling.we started to argue and fight a lot.he is verbally abusive almost every day He always says he's sorry and that he going to Chang, but he isn't. We now have a one year old baby girl and she always cries sees us fight. He thinks that cooking and cleaning and takeing care of the baby is a women's job. He never helps with the baby and if he does its because I begged him to do it and he complains while he does it. He's not very supportive either I'm wanting to back to school but he complains that I don't need it. He complains about everything. He is never happy he always comes home and argues about anything and everything. We are still fighting everyday and I don't know if I can take it anymore I'm not happy anymore but I'm staying because I want our baby to have a father. But for some reason its so hard for me to leave some part of me wants to give him more chances to change even though I know he won't .and to be honest I'm scared to alone and be a single mom. Please help me figure out what's beat for my family. Thanks

Gwynne, get out now while you still can. I've been in the same situation and so have some of my friends. Men like this DO NOT CHANGE. They only get worse. Yes, it will be difficult for you and your baby if you leave, but if you let fear keep you from breaking away from him, it will become more and more and more difficult to carry on and even more difficult to leave. Bite the bullet. Count on your friends. Count on your family. Call the Women's Shelter. They're very understanding and will help you with whatever kind of support you need. I wish you luck. There are loads of women (and men too) who will be there for you when you really need it. And you do need it. All the best to you and your child.
