I punched my husband

My husband is an alcoholic. This week has been one of the toughest. He’s been on a roll all week.

When we’re in bed he tends to argue with me. Over talk em. Talk about my family. It will go on for hours. I always try to stay quiet just waiting for him to fall asleep.

Until last night, he kept pushing and pushing.

Till I screamed for him to stop and I just reacted to a punch him. It wasn’t directly to his face, but his chest.

He was so upset. He left. While he was out, he had gotten into a fight! And got home at 4am.

Today, he slept. He woke up said he was disappointed in me but not mad. He still wasn’t comprehending his part in this.

I know it was wrong of me, but he pushed me to far. I’ve tried to walk away, but he reels me back in saying the marriage would end if I didn’t come back .

We also live in a apartment complex so I feel so embarrassed if they can hear. Usually reason why I try to not Interact with him when he’s drinking.

Also, I’m sure his family is gonna hate me now
