The question is not why is he doing this, but, why are you letting him do this. But to be more precise to your answer, it is because you allow him to. Just remember: "No one may make you feel inferior without your consent."
He does that because he has emotional problems and he takes his own anger, guilt, insecurity, self doubt, cowardice, failures and ineffectiveness out on you. He does it in private so that others won't believe you if you talk about it. Also, he is doing everything he can to make it impossible for you to find support within your circle of friends and family. Those are the typical behaviors of an abuser and it will likely escalate. You are a victim of domestic abuse. You must look in your area for a support group for victims of spousal abuse, perhaps by calling your town hall or a large local hospital or even calling the local Red Cross. You need to act now.
Leave and let him find another victim.
Yes. As soon as you can.
Medically - no. Intellecctually and emotionally you might feel some frustration though.
Not all husbands who are intoxicated would call their wives names and there are placid to funny drunks who may joke around and get on their wife's nerves. However, if the husband is verbally abusive normally alcohol would only escalate his verbal abuse.
Yes, you should forgive your sister, because she's still your sister and you're always going to have her around. If you were to hold grudges with everyone who even looked at your husband, where would you be? With a whole bunch of enemies! You need to forgive and forget, because she's probably sorry and if she's not, you need to sit down and talk to her about why you thought what she did was wrong and how she can make it better. And you can ask her not to do it again.
Verbally outgoing means that you like to talk a lot and be around people. characteristics of being verbally outgoing are that you don't like to be alone for periods of times and you probably have many friends.
I just got out of a relationship like that. He would verbally abuse me and make me feel like crap. He's not going to think he has problems when everyone else knows that he does. My boyfriend had very bad mood swings. He would tell me he loved me one day and turn around and call me a bitch the next. I say, if he's abusing you in anyway, leave him.
Only emotionally and physically
In ancient Greece ideas were mainly spread verbally. People talked about them.
I don't think that your husband became a narc - he has always been a narc. Controlling is one of the things that they want most in life. They want to control everyone and everything around them. They are control freaks! If they can't do this they will make your life a living hell. Believe me!!
He does this to be condecending and patronizing to you. Maybe you make him feel less intelligent and intimidate him. Either way he can tell you verbally that he thought it was great that you knew the answer or not say anything at all, afterall you are an adult... It's possible the above poster hit the nail on the head, but only you know how your husband really treats you. My husband has done that and said, 'Smart girl!' You've heard of 'knock on wood' and many people tap or knock on their head as a joke. Your husband could be giving you a compliment and appreciates your input and not the other way around.
No. But they will make you and everyone around you very uncomfortable.NoNo. But they will make you and everyone around you very uncomfortable.No.
