Am I not giving him a chance?
Relationship Stress / by KHEMPLE113

...See more My husband and I have been married for 5 years but together for 8. When we first got together my husband had asked me to have an open relationship, I agreed even though I wasn't fully comfortable with it because I just wanted to make him happy. Throughout the years there has been normal fights. My husband has acted in coitus with 3 different people. I didn't realize I was disassociating during these events. Essentially separating myself from the situation. I recently realized after meeting someone who treats me amazingly and talks to me about everything, that My husband and I relationship is anything but normal. The person I recently meet is a guy, and I am pretty much dating him. My husband is now uncomfortable with everything and I selfishly do not want to end things on my end with the new guy because of the things my husband put me through. As a little background, my husband tends to have angry outbursts. This effects me because I have PTSD from being raped and beaten during my teenage years from my first ever boyfriend. My husband has never hit me, but the anger and hostility scare me. I love my husband. And we have talked about what we have to change in our relationship, but there are a few problems. We can't afford couples therapy, and he is not on medication for his angry outbursts. I'm trying to give him the chance to change as we have a special needs son together. Should I keep giving chances?
