...it sounds crazy...but I think it's because I want to be able to leave w/o me being hurt...or regretting my leaving...I don't know...this is not an easy decision!
Major life changes never occur without a cost. To my way of thinking, a person needs to honestly add up the pluses and minuses of a action and than live with the consequences. Never think you can escape them. Now whether that means you stay or go is really up to you. Though not always easy, think first than act. Do not seek a breaking emotion point to justify your decision.

Yeah...I know...You are right...I guess I will have to deal with the consequences either way...But I think that I would rather deal with the small consequence of leaving so that I can live a happier healthier life for me and my daughter versus the bigger consequence of being UNHAPPY and showing my daughter the WRONG way to LOVE!!!

You should frame this and put it on your next kitchen wall. =)
When I did the same, I packed lightly and then returned with some friends who picked up my stuff. I rented an apartment near the house so my children would not have to change schools and when the day came I was gone. I had to go to work the next day so everything had to be stable in my new place. It had become impossible to talk with her and was somewhat dangerous (she eventually was placed in restraining orders) so my next apt was kept a secret.
If you can have a talk great but it sounds like he just cannot "hear" you and attempts to manipulate you. In those circumstances it might be best to leave and then have people come immediately when he is not there to remove your and your childs belongings. That way you can get her to school the next day and you can go to work without his emotionality affecting you.
Don't mean to bend your ear but there is a child involved. Safety first.
