Should I go back after what's happened?

A female age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I met my boyfriend online on a dating website. He was amazing! We would spend much time texting getting to know one another before meeting. It was about 2 months and we ended up getting an apartment together. I noticed a change that he would always ask me when I was out of his sight where are you? Then he began going through my cell phone and asking if any men contact me. I replied no, yet he never believed me. He then needed access to my email account which I gave to him and that wasn't good enough,he closed my account. If I chatted on the phone with a gf in his presence he would need to know the details of our conversation. Then he would state you're not going out with your girlfriends without me. If I'd say something he would yell! Sometimes he would pin me down on the bed until I heard what he had to say. He goes away on business a lot and I found out he had a huge gambling addiction and he didn't tell me about it until we almost got evicted. Needless to say I was terribly upset he swore the gambling was done, but I didn't believe him. I waited until he went to work one day I packed, and left. Were still in contact and he's begging me to come back home. I'm confused. My heart says yes, but my brain says no. Any suggestions?
