[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I do want my kids to be happy, but am wondering how long I am obligated to stick it out in this frustrating marriage to a difficult and controlling person. I would not necessarily classify it as emotional abuse (no name calling etc) but everything I do, from how I pack lunches, load the dishwasher, comments I make in conversation, is wrong and needs to be criticized. I just try to talk to DH as little as possible, and do things alone with the kids or with my parents and friends without DH.

I would call that emotional abuse. Is he depressed? Unhappy people often spread their unhappiness to others. I assume he wasn't always like this since you did marry him for a reason, right?

No, he was not always like this, it has gotten worse and worse over the years. I can't say if he is depressed but I know that I am at this point.[/quote]

Read the book, "The Verbally Abusive Relationship"....Verbal Abuse comes in a lot of different forms, it certainly is not just name calling and from what your describing, I would say its abuse. [/quote]
