Should I go back?

Anonymous

I left my husband's home because his insecurities and jealousy crossed alll limits. He says he saw my ex around my workplace. He created chaos there multiple times. My ex's number was still in my phone after we began dating. He's insecure about that. He is insecure about my colleagues and makes me have to call and inform him even if i go to the atm for 10 minutes. He twisted my arm couple times. His parents complains about me having a job that sometimes makes me come home in the evening. (I'm a university lecturer ). Husband became jobless and now he's at home all day calling me and screaming why I'm not coming home in between classes. He says I'm cheating. During fights he says he'll smash my face and even tried to punch me. Every time he restricts himself. I've finally gone back to my parents because he told my mum my ex told him we're still seeing each other. He says mean things about my Mom and sister. I told his parents that he hurt me and I'm leaving but they say what will people say if you leave. Mother in law is leaving the contry for 2 weeks who will take care of the houses but they let me go because my parents came and took me.

Last time he made serious trouble I left him and we had a confrontation with our families present. he said sorry and that he'd never do it again. But he was very angry about that confrontation saying I ambushed him. After just one week he turned into that insecure man with violent tendencies. though he never hit me.

I said I'm divorcing him and he's gone into depression and anxiety. begging me, saying sorry, wanting to go to a doctor to get treated. He says he'll die without me. his family is getting sick from worry. that did I not love him at all that I'm leaving after only two times i faced problem. says he'll never make me do things i dont wanna. I'm never at peace at that house. They're really misogynistic and sexist. I don't want to raise kids in that household.

How do I stop feeling empathy for him? Do people like him change?
