That is partially true I am in a way dependent on him because I work in the small little mom and pop grocery store that he owns....I don't get paid in money working there I how I pay my way as he would say...but I'm also raising his 13 yr old daughter who is equally as disrespectful but she grew up without her mother because she walked out when she was a baby... So not only am I dependent I feel kind of obligated...but I'm thinking it's about time and I've had just about enough

Wow. Slave labor too. Please DO leave him. I actually worry about your girls. Leave him for their sake, please.
You're so right... He does believe he can do what he wants to me and I'll never leave because he has outright said it... I told him if I had ever found out he cheated if be out and he said with a chuckle no you won't you're never going anywhere... Huh wow hearing myself say that as I type this I'm realizing how pathetic I am... I mostly stay because my girls love him a he's the only father they know... I grew up most of my life without mine and he was extremely abusive to me as my mother and my other siblings up until he left and never came back... I guess honestly all I've ever known is abuse... Wow I'm realizing how dysfunctional I am... I think it's about time I reevaluate my life as the people I'm going to have in it
The fact that he said this to you and you are still there means he is right. You will stay no matter what. No matter if he continues to abuse and then moves onto your daughters - you will stay. I feel for your daughters. You are supposed to protect them. My guess is you won't.
As a former professional that dealt with Domestic Violence, I am telling you this is not a good situation. He already put his hands on you, in time it will happen more and more, followed by him being sorry and saying he will change, only to repeat. Its hard I know, but get through the pain of leaving him now. Later it will be much harder and potentially dangerous to you and your family. As you read this, you know what I am saying is true even though you don't want to believe it. In time you will look back and thank yourself for being strong now.
I may be ****ty at standing up for myself and I take a lot of **** and abuse towards me but you are so wron when you say I wouldn't protect my kids... That is the one thing I have as always will do... But in a way I do understand why you say this because if I'm going to allow this to happen to me why wouldn't I allow it to happen to them... I'm taking in everything everyone here is saying... And you're all right I need to start figuring **** out so I can make sure me and my babies are ok
If you didn't leave for all the other stuff, you won't leave him now.
Your choice, don't complain.

I sincerely hope you are right. I have no faith in you, based on your past with him. I would be most happy if you proved me wrong. Now go do it.

He sounds like a scumbag. Who even says those things to someone they supposedly love?
