This post makes me incredibly sad. I do not remember if there have been posts on this situation before or not, but...wow. Marriage is a relationship that is based on LOVE, MERCY...you husband is supposed to be your COMFORT, not your BEATER!!! Seriously. Please don't remain married to a man who is so abusive towards you. If he has hurt you to the point of bruising and injuring you, its time to say goodbye. No one has the right to hurt anyone like that, ESPECIALLY not a husband to his wife. Like I said, Marriage is love, mercy, comfort, and if your marriage is abuse, it is not marriage at all. You'll be better off without someone who beats you like that.
