[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is more than emotional abuse.  What OP is describing is physical and emotional abuse.  He may not ever "hit" OP, but blocking her, slamming things, grabbing her, etc. are all beyond what I would consider emotional abuse.

And if he doesn't do it at work, he is capable of emotionally regulating himself.  He just finds it too hard to do it all the time.

My DH is like this and he has gotten a lot better over the years.  Now he at least knows when he is about to lose it and he goes into another room and has his tantrum.  I don't like it, but as long as he is not anywhere near me or touching me he can deal with his frustration however he wants.  I consider it a starting point, and I would rather he not do this at all, but marriages are not perfect equations that will always work out the way you want.[/quote]

PS some men are like this without any trauma.  My DH has never had any significant trauma in his life.  His parents just behaved this way, so he picked it up.  It is something to think about.[/quote]
