Not sure what to do
| Fri, 03-16-2007 - 1:01pm |
I decided to take a "break" from my boyfriend of a year because his third drunken angry outburst over the weekend. Before this weekend everything was great. We put an offer on a house to buy together, we had nice dinners together, laughed all the time. His one problem is a few times he's gotten really drunk and gotten angry and violent. Not at me, but at the hotel room, my house, his house. He is totally heart broken that I finally said, enough is enough adn he is seeing a therapist and quit drinking. IT's only been a week though adn I am afraid that if I take him back that one day he will lash out again and what if we have kids or he trashes our house. Its really sad because our families are friends. Our friends are friends. We love each other. I just dont' knwo what to do...

Hi kenai2007 and welcome to the board.
Let him do his no drinking and therapy for at least 3 months alone, then if you two work it out, go to counseling with him to discuss your very valid fears for the future.
How did you leave it with him when you told him you had 'enough'?
