Title: different types of emotional abuse
Post by: bus boy on January 20, 2017, 10:24:26 PM
I've been thinking of the different ways people abuse. Was I emotionally abused by xw or did she just not want me?  She always threatened to leave, never work on issues, tell me everything is my fault, change or I will leave, that was xw's way to deal with things, threatening to leave and she did. On the other end of the spectrum is my brother in law, his abuse to my sister is getting worse, along with his drinking. My sister leaves and he begs her to come back, professes love and change and she comes back. That's another kind of abuse. My xw never promised a thing, only to leave and she did. Asked things of me that were completely unreasonable, the main one being I put my family out of my life, my family or her, no compramising in any way, no contact what so ever. I loved xw and my family, I had no reason to put them out of my life, I wanted some contact, she said to bad I'm leaving. She put me in a horrible spot, told me I chose my family over her and our son, said I hope your proud of yourself and left. 2 different abusers, my brother in law, very text book abuser and my xw very dark sinster deep to the core of my pain emotional abuser.
