King of the Castle / Demand Man types

[Wheredothesocksgo]

Having read through some freedom programme and Lundy Bancroft stuff, I clearly recognise my husband in the descriptions of these two 'types'. I want to read more about this as opposed to the overt or physical types but im not sure what it would be termed. What do i search for?

Does anyone know what you'd call this sort of behaviour?

It's just bullying with a fancy title.

Exactly

It could fall under a number of categories. Mostly control but a few others

-domineering
-coercive control
-narcissist
-emotional abuse
-psycological abuse
-financial abuse
-conservative upbringing

any of these search terms in conjunction with relationship or partner/husband should get you the information you're looking for.

‘Being an arsehole.’

Stop researching it and focus on not tolerating it? Women often get frozen in this cycle of hyper analysing abusive men and it achieves nothing - even if you complete a research project on his abusive behaviour, the end result is the same. He’s still abusing you.

Yes, you're absolutely right but we don't live in a black and white world. Being on the receiving end of domineering behaviour means that you are filled with self doubt and in need of validation and understanding.

Noone with a family can realise they've had enough and leave the next day, it's a process that needs careful management and a mindset that can't be changed.

So, I'm researching to put a name to the way I've been living and am going to a therapist. Once the leaving day arrives - yes I already know it - I'll be stronger and won't be swayed by the love bombing I'm currently getting because he is aware of the change in me.
