I agree 100%... When someone does not respect you or respect that you are saying "hey, stop, cut it out." Yes, that's abusive. They're not listening.
You might try to imagine if your situation belonged to a friend... How would you view the situation? What advice would you give her? Sometimes that is helpful for me when I can't see the situation (I'm in) anymore.
