Who cares what he thinks about his behavior? All that matters is under what conditions you will accept it. At a minimum, MC should be one of those conditions. But, perhaps it would make sense for you to contact a women's shelter to figure out how best to proceed at this point. It is NOT OK for you to continue to accept it and do nothing. But, I am no expert. It is important for you to be safe in whatever steps you take. So, professional advice is probably a good idea. BUT you must be very forthcoming and honest about the level and consistency of the abuse with anyone you contact.
