In June this year I got into a grad school acting programme. My husband was super supportive when I was applying and helped me with my application and auditions. But he changed completely when I got in.

For context. He’s always been super supportive and proud of me. He looks after me and is always so sweet, so this change is so confusing for me. I don’t know what to do.

He started getting jealous and saying that I shouldn’t hang out with any of the men on my course. He said that I’d better wear my wedding ring when I’m there. He said that if I had to kiss anyone on stage then that’s basically cheating and something a pr*stitute would do. He said it was disgusting that I wanted to do that. I also made some new friends this summer and he told me that they aren’t my real friends, that I shouldn’t trust them, and that I shouldn’t want to go anywhere without him. He’s got angry when we’ve had conversations and he’s hit things near me and won’t let me leave rooms until I’ve given him a hug.

We’ve been together since we were 19/20, we’ve built a whole life together. Does anyone have any advice?
