Can someone still be verbally abusive even if they are not calling you names or insulting you?
Yelling is abusive Yelling does not mean the person is a deliberate abuser. An abuser wears the other person down. A person yelling could just be angry at that moment. It does not necessarily mean they are being abusive at that moment. It could be a person at their wits end. A person who has received bad news for instance. We have ALL yelled at some point in our lives. Use your own discretion when reading advice here. Fortunately most posts on here are answered in a manner to provide the questioner with an honest and well thought out opinion.

I've always found that it's unhealthy to stay in relationships with those who are verbally abusive. But it's equally important to learn to forgive. Forgiveness gives you freedom from bitterness.

Is your wife abusive if she called you a thief and you asked her to apologize for doing so and her reply was that you were stealing?
That's not abuse. It's an argument. I disagree with the above comment. If a man calls a woman fat, ugly or stupid it is considered Abuse. The name calling makes her feel inferior. In this case A Wife calling her husband a Thief initially is an attack on his Character & Honesty. If he asked for an apology & she states "You were stealing", Her reply is intended to hurt & it is insulting. Calling someone a Thief is The Lowest of Insults.I believe anytime someone, "REACCUSES" It is deliberate & intended to hurt & IT IS THEREFORE ABUSIVE. Selica
