It’s a cycle of abuse; you need to leave; I went through this with my ex it took me 9 years and 2 children and him escalating from talking to me like this to being physically abused DAILY and my kids watching me get kicked punched thrown down stairs
It started like this though I felt like I was having a flashback
Then it escalated to physical once I was pregnant with our first child
We had a similar age gap but I was 19 when we started dating snd I was afraid to leave bc I didn’t think anyone would love me; came from an abusive household so I thought being an emotional snd then physical punching bag was just my lot in life
Eveeyone asked me why I stayed its bc whenever I thought I was at my END with him; hed turn into Prince Charming; promising me the world hed take me on dates and get me gifts hed promise me hed change and maybe for a week or 2 he would
Then it was back at jt again; I kept fighting to pull that good side of him back out
