tell him or record it and make him listen to it
Unless your ex has a police record/jail time for DV, there would be no way to tell. A private Detective can access old records.
you are an abuser if you demean the other person (tell them they are worthless, stupid, lame, etc). whatever makes the person feel small and "less than" is abuse
I think the key word here is ABUSER. He is doing it to draw you back in, hurt you, throw you into confusion and to keep abusing you, which it seems is working. Do not let him back in.
An emotional abuser is someone who is constantly belittling another. Example: If a husband is an emotional abuser he will call his wife every dirty thing in the book; tell her she is ugly or fat; not a good cook; not a good mother, etc., to lower her self worth and self esteem. It is a form of control the emotional abuser needs and they have generally learned this pattern of behavior from the environment in which they grew up.
Tell the police.
Call the cops and tell them to come and get him/her. Tell them what they are doing to you.
Unfortunately, if they don't think that they are, you won't be able to convince them. Try to reason with them if you can about how their abuse hurts others. Try to tell them that they can change their ways and get help if they want to.
You can't go around proving that someone is something, whether they are an abuser, an alcoholic, drug addict etc. If the parent is an abuser, people usually can tell if they don't know already. You can tell the coach kind of what is going on and home and I'm sure the coach can figure it out. Most people don't want to get involved in domestic disputes, however and probably won't if the abuse is "just" verbal. ~ T YES!!!!!!!!
To tell the audience that the speaker is moving on to a different point. This can be verbal or non verbal.

I was dealing with one myself and the only choice I had was to stop hiding. Usually in a abusive environment, the abuser will force you not to tell. The only obvious answer is to do exactly the opposite of what the abuser tells you. Make sure you do it when your alone and when he won't find out. If the abuser is in physical contact with you then you should tell police or a person you trust that can do it for you( without the abuser knowing). Get out of the house, if you have children then get them out as well, go to a friend/ family member that the abuser doesn't know about. If the abuser knows all your family members and friends then go to a hotel ( bring money ) and make sure there is no trace of evidence that the abuser will pick up and know your there. Once at the hotel, call the police. If your married then tell someone how you feel about your abusive partner and consider a divorce.
