I need some advice. Relationship Triangle.?

I have been with a guy for almost 3 years now. He was my entire world but he cheated on me on more than one occasion and he is abusive and controlling. He has done so much for me that I would feel bad to leave him. I met a guy last year and he instantly became my best friend. I told him about everything and I had to stop him from going to kill my boyfriend. Well things started to get heated between me and my friend back last April and I have to say I think im in love with him. He makes me so happy and tends to whatever needs I have. He isn't controlling or abusive at all. I don't know how to break things off with my current boyfriend. He has gone to threatening to kill me if I ever left him.

Help???? :(

    Hi, make sure you tell friends and family what is going on with him. Break up with him in public or over the phone, make sure you are not alone with him. Don't let him bait you into an argument, you have already made your choice it is not up for discussion or debate. Your abuser will try to guilt you into staying with him or giving him a chance. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS. If you feel you are in danger call the police. If something does happen make sure you go to the hospital and ask them to document it for the police.

    You can call a help hotline for people in abusive relationships and they will have more professional advice. The link I have attached has some phone numbers on their.

    You can have happiness!

    Your current boyfriend is a douche that doesn't deserve the time of day. He may threaten to kill you but the reality is he is a gutless coward that will cry like a baby to keep you from leaving his pathetic cheating abusive a*s. Call the police if need be, just get out.

    Conflict or anger itself does not have to cause an irreparable rift between partners. With good communication skills and a shared commitment to a marriage, even these are surmountable. How to save your marriage https://tr.im/ar6R7

    However, at that point where one partner is at the brink of abandoning the relationship, how can the remaining partner save their marriage? If you are at the point where your spouse has asked for a divorce, what can you do?

    You must realize first that, you do have a choice. Often, when confronted by a crisis, we find ourselves backed into a corner thinking we have no choice in the matter. How can we change the situation when it involves another person's feelings or decisions? While we cannot, must not and in no way manipulate, blackmail or threaten our partner into changing their mind, we can actually control how we react to the situation. If anything, you must realize that you still have control over yourself. You have the opportunity to look inward and take responsibility for your own feelings and actions and even have the chance to take personal inventory of what your partner is trying to tell you. Are there points in your marriage that must be changed? If so, respond appropriately and proactively.
