Name calling from husband

[Mummyof434]

If your husband started calling you names like the c and you word and other things would you leave him and end your marriage

Probably because as it is new behaviour he no longer feels about you the way he did when he didn’t call you names. It suggests contempt has crept in and I wouldn’t want to spend time with anyone who was contemptuous of me.

Its not the same as being with someone who has used foul language when they are angry for as long as you’ve known them

Yes, I would.

Very definitely. DP has never called me any nasty names, but if he did we would be over. We would be over if I did as well, but I would never dream of using them to anybody. It shows a complete lack of respect. Relationships are supposed to be mutual caring, mutual respect, mutually cherishing each other. Disagreements can be talked through calmly. Would he swear at his boss? No? Then he can control it and is CHOOSING to swear at you.

Do you really think anyone would recommend you tolerate this and stay?

Yes, definitely. No man who had an ounce of respect for his partner would call her a c--t. I hate the word so much I can't even write it in full.

Depends on his age, mine is 62 yo and I would be suspecting dementia?

I left my first DH due to, in part, vile name calling, including the C word. There were other abusive behaviours too but I found that the worst for some reason.

Yes.

Yes, and I did leave. Even if I’d have forgiven him, I couldn’t forget it.
