Do abusers really envy those they treat the worst and look down on?

Abusers offend against their victims for a variety of reasons, pathological envy being only one of them.
Pathological envy is a strong motive in Narcissism, for instance. Additionally, to cast themselves in the role of "master" (Jeffrey Satinover's term), narcissists cast others in the roles of disciples. They transform others into patients, assigning to themselves the role of psychiatrist. And so on. Actually, they firmly and fully believe that they are working towards the improvement and personal betterment and welfare of the other (I call it: the "mobilization" of their motives and behaviour). This is why they are shocked when these others "ungratefully" rebel, release themselves from the straight jacket of their assigned "roles" and confront them. They are narcissistically injured to the core when this happens and react with rage and paranoia. It only serves to enforce their belief in an unjust world, far inferior and oblivious to their talents and contributions.

Why would an abusive ex-husband be happy when you told him he broke your heart?
That lets him know that he has or had enough power to really hurt you. It probably makes him proud to know that he controlled that and made the wound stick. The worst thing to him would be for you to live well and treat yourself well for the rest of your life. You just told him what he wanted to hear. He is abusive and abusers want their victims to feel bad. If they don't feel bad, then the abuser failed.
