I’m writing this for lovely friend who knows I’m posting.
She has recently come to realise that she’s in an abusive marriage. It’s been a long time and there are children involved.
Her DH ticks a lot of the boxes of being emotional abusive. Won’t talk, no emotion, she’s always wrong.
So much so there’s no point in talking because she knows what the answers will be. She’s to blame for it all.
He’s always been a grumpy bastard so she’s always tried to make him happy. He never ever says Thank you for anything.
A few times she’s said she wants to talk and fix things between them. He won’t engage at all.
She’s read stuff, she knows but is finding it so so hard to really believe she’s the victim. Finding it so so hard to find the courage to get out of it. The what/ifs/maybes are driving her mad.
So how does she get there? What does she say? She just wants it all to go away.
Can you kindly help her?
