How Should I Deal with an [Abusive] Spouse?

I feel my wife has been very abusive to me over the past year or so. She constantly yells at me for little things (e.g. folding but not putting laundry away). Also, she doesn't like my side of the family. She threatened to stab me a month or so ago and literally chased me out of our house a week or so ago. I haven't called the cops on her because I do care about her but I am concerned for her and I. We obviously have a breakdown in communication as I'm afraid to speak to her. To make things worse, I cheated on her a while ago. Now I am aware that what I did was wrong and I did speak with a priest who told me that I have to tread lightly here given my wife's temper. I know where I went wrong, but I'm not sure what to do about our marriage. I'm not going to blame here for cheating, but her temper has never helped. I've had thoughts that she could hurt me months ago before I cheated on her, and to hear them come out of her mouth definitely confirmed my thoughts. She uses the lords name in vain on a regular basis. I have gotten kicked out of the bedroom and our house a lot of times prior to cheating on her simply because she didn't want me around. I've never called the police on her because of her threats. Personally, I feel I've done enough damage on my own, but I don't think I am entirely to blame here. We went on a vacation a few weeks ago and things seemed to be a little better since then. I am still looking for advice though...Please don't post messages judging me. I know where I was wrong and I spoke to a priest and I've been reading the Bible. I'm really trying to correct *My* issues. Unfortunately, I still can't control my wife's reactions. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is it really sometimes best just to ';move on?';How Should I Deal with an [Abusive] Spouse?
Report it to your local police. She will be forced to address the problem. It will only get worse . My wife reported my trying to grab her wrist ( After finding a hidden joint bank account with an other man) I was glad the state issued me to receive domestic violence counseling.It really did help me. She will get the peer support she needs. You're man enough to admit your wrong doing. I wish you all the best. But don't do nothing she needs intervention.How Should I Deal with an [Abusive] Spouse?
Sounds like she is really mad at you. The question is why. You should ask her how she feels and what you can do to make it better. Try not to get angry or that will just make her more angry. Communication is the key. Good Luck.
Get a divorce now! She sounds totally psycho! Its one thing that you cheated, but to threaten to stab you is a whole other ballgame! Leave now, with your life intact!
one word: PSYCHO
It might be that your wife has a thyroid problem that she is unaware of. My wife turned into Mrs. Hyde after the baby came and later tested for hypothyroidism.





Even if your wife has not had a pregancy, her thyroid might be messing with her head...';Easy to Get Mad';...Major symptom...I sugggest that you read up on this stuff on your own and then once you are ready...talk to your wife about getting a simple blood test for thyroyd...
It sounds like a ';biblical separation'; is in order here.





That means your first intention isn't divorce.....it's getting the marriage healthy and ultimately reconciling.





But it would depend on both of you getting your acts straight. No more cheating, no verbal abuse or threats of physical abuse, etc.





Otherwise I fear for your marriage, and perhaps your life.
