My husband and I are 43 years old. We're athletes, we go to the gym. My husband is strong, I like that. But he also goes to mixed martial arts. He gets punched in the face from time to time. I am unpleasant in front of relatives and acquaintances that he has a beaten face. But I can't fight and forbid him to go there. If my husband does not go for a week, then at home he is sad, does not talk to anyone and constantly snaps at me. And goes, will get in the face and long then satisfied tells me, then how he was in the legs, then how he worked on the body, which I am not interested. It's like masochism and addiction. How to dissuade him from doing it? What would I suggest he replace it with?

It sounds like your husband finds a lot of fulfillment in mixed martial arts. Instead of trying to dissuade him, why not try to understand his passion better? Suggest exploring less intense martial arts or combat sports together. Communication is key to finding a compromise that works for both of you.
