Answer
you have a choice...it's not love, it's addiction, so stop using that word; his abusive behavior should put him in jail or an institution; your choice is to give in to your addiction/insecurities and continue being knocked around by a sick human, or free yourself from this prison and ecsape to save your life from more pain/suffering...
