My husband isn't who I thought he was

You don't know who a person really is until you marry them and move in together, unfortunately. My mother never knew about my father's anger issues until they did, and she honestly told me once she never would have married him if she had known and told me to never get in her position. She loves my dad but the emotional turmoil he puts on her daily stresses her out and it hurts me and my siblings to see her treated in such a way. I grew up being scared to death of my father's anger issues. He never hit us, fortunately, but he breaks things and lets his anger get out of control. If I were you I'd get out while the marriage is still new and you don't have kids involved yet. You're still very young and you could find someone who will treat you better. I honestly wish I could tell you it gets better but with anger management issues there's really no way to tell.
