So sorry things came to the point they did. For whatever reason a seperation is sad. There comes a time when we know changes need to happen though, and it sounds like you arrived there. Congrats on your strength to make your choice.

He actually got in my face in front of people, yelling at me that I am "trying to draw people after me".
This is one thing I would never tolerate again. I ended several relationships because of similar behaviour. It's not always yelling or beatings - sarcasm can be just as bad. It's natural that people occasionally disagree, but there is an appropriate time and place to do it, as well as a proper way of doing it. Just because I had to tolerate public screaming and beatings from my parents as a child doesn't mean I have to put up with it now. If that means I'll never have a relationship again then so be it. I can live with that.
Take care of yourself first, A & W. No one else will.

Good luck. I am in a mixed marriage, and have been for 20 years. I know it is not easy, especially when the watchliar's are involved. Be stong and follow your heart.
