You're being treated like an object and like garbage.  Sorry to be so blunt, but that's how I see it.  I agree wholeheartedly with tink that if ANY man EVER said that to me (about sucking his *bleep* to make myself feel better), I'd be out of there, SO fast his head would spin.

Dear, you're in an abusive relationship.  This goes much farther than how you described it.  He's mistreating you and you shouldn't put up with it for another nanosecond.  Don't be afraid to leave because you'd be alone.  Alone would be an improvement and I think you'd quickly find that out.  You could live a peaceful daily life without walking on eggshells and waiting for the next show to drop.

Best to you.

Even if you so-called burned these bridges, it's still imperative that you get away from this guy because you need time to be alone to learn how to love yourself and who you are as an individual before you can have a healthy relationship with anyone else. I bet those people with whom you burned bridges would respect you again if you ditched this guy and took your power back.

I must say that I agree.  This doesn't sound happy for you.  Now, many a man looks at other women and it IS harmless.  Yes, they should be discreet---  I agree fully.  But, we all look.  And, many light up when 'other' people are around.  We see them when they are tired, cranky, bored and then someone comes into the room and they put on their "I'm cool, I'm funny, I'm smart, I'm great to be around" persona.  Again, the truth is that we all do that from time to time.  I can be irritated with my husband when out grocery shopping and see a neighbor and immediately be all smiles and charming.  

But then you talk about some very disrespectful things that he says and does.  That's where I draw the line.

We only have one life to live and we deserve to be happy.  Is the issue your not being confident to leave him?  You mention burning bridges with your support---  what do you mean?

Bottom line is that you only have one life to live

You need to find a professional therapist to help you deal with your low worth and self-esteem and loose this relationship.  

Is this normally how your relationships go.....abusive?

I agree with Chima7 that You should leave.

If a man(?) told me to "suck" anything He would never see me again.

and You say he has 'punched' You - self esteem or no, why would You stay to be treated that way?  

By the time we are 50 years old, we are mature women
We know we deserve to be respected
AND
we know we are responsible for our own choices.

Dump him. Even being alone is five million times better than this! I would have told him to take a flying leap a long time ago. He's a worthless piece of trash and you don't need to put up with being treated that way! Just leave him, you will never change a jerk like him.

What does He do (or not do) SPECIFICALLY to

"treat You like You are not there or like You are the ugliest person"??

What does He do (or not do) specifically to be

"nice to others but when it comes to You it's different"

What does He do (or not do) specifically to make You "feel like His mother"

What does He do (or not do) specifically to "show You that You are ugly"

It's hard to offer suggestions when this seems to be based on Your 'feeling' rather than on specifics.  You haven't said what He does or doesn't do that is making You feel badly.  It would be helpful to know
