Do you consider this emotional abuse?

Question

When your husband says he's done with you almost everytime you fight, and then leave you upset for hours and comes back and begs you to take him back because he changed his mind???

Answer

I call it mind games. I think you shouldnt put yourself through this emotional rollercoaster. It is enabling him. I know love is such a powerful thing and makes your heart and mind think of the good times you have together so it isnt worth leaving him but you will always feel that void. Wondering if he is staying because he loves you or because that is the only place he can go. Its easier to just go back home then to have to start over and find someone else who will do things for him. Dont allow him to mess with you emotions like that. Hold your ground and let him know you won't allow him to do that to you.

Just my thoughts and opinions about this. I pray everything will be okay.

Answer

dealt with that for almost 2 years with an ex, although there was usually a huge blowout + "we're done". every time he would apologize within an hour, sometimes a bit longer, and say he didn't mean it. He was amazing to me when there wasn't a fight. One day when he said we should break up, my first reaction was "yeah, we should" instead of "you don't mean that". and that's the day it was over for me.

yes yes yes, absolutely it is emotional abuse!! you do not deserve to feel your relationship waver with every argument. my current SO, even during arguments, always assures me of his love for me and that "this too shall pass". It is amazing to experience a relationship without the feeling that it might break apart any moment. You may want to suggest counseling on his part or together.

You and I are in the same boat.
