[quote=Anonymous]OP, you are deluding yourself if you think forcing an apology from somebody means that he has taken responsibility for his actions.  If he does give you the apology that you are craving then he is doing so because you requested it, not because he actually means it.

The patterns of your fighting, in the way that you described it, are verbal and emotional abuse. Stonewalling, gaslighting, silent treatment are all forms of verbal and emotional abuse.

You have to decide if you want to live with that kind of abuse. The reason the people stay with abusers is because when it is good it is good, you said that yourself. OK then. If the good times are wonderful and they make up for the abuse then stay with it.

It is possible to be in a relationship with somebody where the good times are good and the bad times are not abusive. That’s not the situation that you are  in, it’s the situation you could be in if you looked for the right person.

There is no amount of anger or couples canceling that will solve abuse.[/quote]
