You do not deserve that!! If he does this BEFORE you 2 are married, imagine what he might think he could do once you are married to him!! I can understand why you want to try something before just giving up, but please remember, HE is the one who needs to want to change. Nothing you can do alone will make him "better". By all means, go to councelling. If he won't go with you, go by yourself. And, please, make a copy of this message and show it to any counselor you do see. Ask them if this is true. My ex-husband started by calling me names, making fun of me and generally being a PITA. This was before we got married! I finally divorced him when an incident occurred involving a gun. I was not willing to take any more chances with my children's lives or my life. This was about 16 years ago. To this day, he claims He "wasn't himself" and that the incident was MY fault!! PLEASE...talk to someone about this!
Hi I'm new and well I am engaged but my fiance mentally abuses me.It drives me crazy!I have an almost 4 month old son with him and I don't want to try and leave because I would like to try something before just giving up.Do you think we should go to a couples councelor?He calls me names and stuff and they really hurt my feelings and I tell him and he'll quit for like a few hours then start again.
Hi, Mary...My name is Mary, also, and I have been in your shoes. I know it's hard, I stayed for 4 years until my ex did one thing that convinced me that I had to get out of the situation.
My husband mentally abuses me. I just try and tuned him out, but now our 5yo son tries to intervene. I want to leave but I don't want our son to grow up without his father. I left my older two kids dad because he physically and mentally abused me and them. He was never there for them after that. Glad you started this group!
