Answers:
This is to whoever may answer this yes!. I too have experienced most of the things described above and I have found through it all that if I put it in the Lord's hands I came off victorious!.I cannot say that this is the easy way to handle it but I believe in the long run the easiest way is not always the best way infact it almost never is the best way!.But also neither can I say there is an easy way!.Now that years have passed and I have also grown allot!. I see how different I feel about some of these things!.I do believe that it is the persons(abusers)own inferiority and their own lack of self esteem that causes them to behave in an abusive manner!.What I learned to ask myself was "Does what this insecure person think about me make me what they think !?"or "do they really think this or is it actually the problem that is going on inside of them!?"You cannot allow anyone to convince you that you are something that you are not!.They may control the finances ,But NO ONE can control what you think or feel ,you are a unique individual an there is no one exactly like you in all the earth nor has anyone ever been exactly like you throughout all the ages past!. If they are incapable of showing you real love and affection and dedication it is not your fault !.They are the one with the problem !.Your only problem is allowing them to affect your emotions!.I know it's hard not to because they make you feel less then human!.But you are responsile to not let them win!.Don't allow that hurt to affect you and don't let them at anytime see that it is affecting you !.You will need a sounding board friend relitive to get things out even a professional but the first thing to do is brush yourself off and let them know by your actions that they can do this all they want and it won't matter infact maybe a little smile like" I know what your doing "every time they act up!.But don't loose it because as soon as you do ,they will know they are getting to you!.The old saying "sticks and stones may hurt my bones but names will never hurt me!."You can use that like this in your mind say "Sticks and stones may hurt my bones but your thoughtless actions an unkind words will never hurt me!." Its an affermation that they will not effect you life or your day!.Now in my life things are better sometimes things get a little crazy but for the most part I just don't care I'm over the hurt I'm over the insults I'm over whatever is thown my way so not as much is thrown my way and I survived it all with the Lords help!.He gave me the tools in His word and He is the victoriousWww@Answer-Health@Com

yes i DID, but after 11 years i got up the nerve to leave!. it took me this long because he swore he would make my life hell, which he has, but in the long run im finally FREE!! its sad that some people mistreat others in this manner and have no idea the damage that they cause!. id rather be dead than spend 1 more minute under the "generals" command!. the really sad part is that when you are happy with a person you just do what you should because you dont want to mess it up, you dont have to scare someone to make them do what you want!. i had to make a move for my two kids before they started to think this was normal!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No!.!.!.!.!.to all of the above!.
Who ever you are talking about!.!.!.!.does not sound like a partner to me!.

No!.!.!.not at all!. We actually are sometimes the object of 'jealousy'!.!.!.for lack of a better term that I could think of!. I'm surprised that it actually angers some people that we are "one!." I wouldn't hurt him!.!.!.that would be like hurting myself!. And he feels the same way!. I wish everyone could experience the kind of relationship we have!.

**EDIt!.!.!.I did have that 'other' relationship years ago!. Got away with my children!.!.!.and God blessed me with this husband!. Yet one more reason to thank HIM!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
