Husband says he'll leave?

Hi, recently I got married and on our honeymoon he informed me that if I go to the bathroom  (pee or poop) or pass gas in our new house he will leave me as that is not acceptable to him. He says 7 Eleven in down the street.  Im so shocked because he never brought this up before we were married...we didn't live together. I honestly don't know what to do as we don't believe in divorce or annulment and he says it's normal for this situation to occur and he said just nobody talks about it.

Hi IrmaJean.  Run and dont look back!  You must leave this nutcase now before you chicken out.  Be thankful you have found this out before you were another sad statistic.  This man is not just a nutcase - he is seriously mentally ill and you do NOT want to spend the rest of your life looking over your shoulder.  Theres no love here!  Go girl, you can do it.  Just make sure you keep in touch with your pastor and his wife.  And most importantly, dont blame yourself - ever - for making this mistake!  I will be praying for you.

I believe that your husband hid his controlling personality from you before you were married, and this 7/11 rule is the first of many, a test to see if you'll comply. This will surely lead to many more controlling rules. I strongly urge you to seek annulment as you have said, and look for a new joyful life instead of this. It sounds like you have the support of your pastor and his wife, which is wonderful - support is necessary and it will help you. You deserve to be treated fairly and kindly. I wish you good luck!

I am hoping you have already left this situation. What you have described is the beginning of a controlling and abusive situation. He probably hid these tendencies from you until after your wedding. This first demand may be to test the waters to see how compliant you are. Don't try to reason with him about it, just leave before it gets to a point where you feel you can't. He most likely has a personality disorder.
