You already know what you should do, but knowing and doing are 2 different things. My first marriage was to a verbally abusive man, I put up with it for 5 years, thinking I had to because I took vows. Eventually he ended it and I was so relieved. This was 12 years ago and it still affects me in ways I never imagined. Please, don't continue to put up with this. If he considers your feelings stupid and doesn't have the time to talk about them, get out. You're right, it's not going to get better. Would you want either one of your children to be in an abusive relationship? You are setting the example of what love and marriage are for them.
