You said the magic words, "he asked for a divorce because IT WAS HIS DECISION!" Abusive men (or women) are about complete control and you are their victim. He is not about to let you have the final say or final action in your marriage. Here is what you do: When he's not there (at work) you see a lawyer and be sure you are protected regarding any properties are monies as well as children (custody.) Then you set up an appointment with an Abused Women's Center or phone your Mental Health and they will put you onto one. Abused Women's Center will sit you down with a counselor and they will usually have you go to a transition house or "safe house" and no one (unless you tell them) will know where you are with the exception of your counselor. Once there you can stay there (with your children if you have any) and they will expect you to take the programs offered because they are teaching you tools so you will not return to your abusive mate or choose another abusive man in the future. Your are stronger than you think hon. No matter how rotten he is, you can beat this guy at his own game. I did! He's controlling and frightening you, but take that one last big step and seek out the help I mentioned. Good luck Marcy
