    Sounds like a conversation that we would have. We have been fighting for over a week. I got sick - (my son has an ear infection) and now i have a cold...and he doesnt help out. Today he calls me satan and other names, and i finally just put my foot down and said dude, what did i ever do to you to seriously deserve this? I flipped...finally said if you want it ended, grow some balls and say it. I will get it started today. but im NOT your punching bag anymore. I said go to work and leave me alone for the entire day.

    You know what he said to me today as I was cooking?



    him: why do you always have to cook everyday?

    me: because we (my daughter and I) have to eat.

    him: your cooking doesn't taste good and it gives me diarrhea.

    me: why didn't you say anything before I started cooking?

    him: because I don't like talking to you.



    This kind of conversation would have made me DEPRESSED before. I'm still sad--but now I'm sad because he's NUTS and I'm here with him.

    You are not alone but, I am so relieved to hear that I am not alone. Your kids look up to you and their smiles should always make you happy. Some ppl have to deal with their pain alone and there is no one to make them smile, I am living proof.

    You're not alone. I'm here. We can help each other go through this.



    I was reading posts about being emotionally abused because I am. I am unemployed and I also have a daughter, a little girl. I'm scared. I want things to change and the only thing I have is a plan. And that is, to get out of this situation. I'm taking it one baby step at a time.



    At the moment, my partner is walking about in the apartment. It's eleven pm here. I'm in my daughter's bedroom. I have been spending the nights here for some time now. Maybe you understand why.



    He does not hit me physically. But psychologically, he's beaten the life out of me.



    I sought help at a local group here who give free counseling to women. It is the light that's guiding me through the darkness right now. Talking helps a lot.



    You will need people to help you get through this.



    If you need someone to talk to, I'll be here for you.
