Domestic violence case questions!

I was wondering if anyone could kind of estimate what will happen to him. We are in Michigan.

I was in a situationship with a guy for almost 3 years. Last month, he purposely yanked blankets I was laying on to the ground and I hit my head. Afterwards, I started crying and saying I wanted my dad, who passed away on Nov and he laughed at me about it. I have video and text evidence of him admitting to all of it.

He had one prior charge but the girl dropped the charges and they’re still friends to current day. I wanted to drop it but I don’t think I really can now since the state took it, right??

When it first happened, he blew up my phone, begging me not to press charges, then later told me that if I even consider it that I have to never talk to him again, how he’ll 💀 himself, and how he’ll never be able to look at me the same. But then also says he doesn’t trust himself to not “snap on me” one day.

My family/friends think I’m crazy for wanting to drop charges. They said they think I’m putting myself in immense danger by staying with someone who admits to not trusting to have the control to not further hurt me. But I just can’t see myself with anyone else. And I feel like he’s not abusive, we just fight a lot, so I feel like it’s more like we don’t mix well?
