Well I had a horrible relationship I was able to get out of Thankfully.

But .... I want to touch on something that gets little to no attention

My husband was previously married for 18 years, they have 3 boys.

She verbally and mentally abused him from 3rd anniversary on .. anniversary 16 she started hitting him. He never hit her, he was raised you never hit a woman. He demanded couples counseling.. she flat refused.

One night she beat him 2 black eyes , split lips in numerous places and a broken nose. He kept trying to leave she would not let him have the car keys he went outside she followed , lots of yelling cold show up , it’s obvious he was the one beaten. The cops told HIM to go stay somewhere else..

So men can be abused just as easily.
Most men will NOT admit there partner is abusing them.

So any men out there ... find a Therapist and come up with a plan to leave , and leave.
