If he/she is calling you names there could be a slight hiccup in your relationship and you might feel disrespected, a good thing to do is talk to him/her in confidence and tell them how you are suffering. Sometimes these things can blow their minds and things could get out of hand, if he/she starts shrieking and going mental then you should end the relationship there and then.

The dynamic between couples should always be one of respect. If your partner is perpetually demeaning you with glib jibes or denigrating words, then it's important for you to address this subject. Do not attempt this during a period of anger as it's often that neither of you will achieve your intended goals. It will only turn out to be a further accelerated argument.

Find a comfortable environment, such as whilst dining out, or after sharing intimate time together to tell your partner that you feel hurt and demeaned when he does this. It may possibly be that he isn't really aware that what he is saying as a joke, you are taking as a hurtful insult.

If your partner persists with demeaning and denigrating you, think carefully whether there are other things they do which make you uncomfortable. Are they trying to control you? Are they trying to demote your self-confidence? Are they actually trying to feel better about themselves at your expense?

If your partner refuses to listen and persists, try again and remind them that you've told them previously how much their behaviour hurts you. Make no threats, nor place yourself in a situation whereby you could be in physical danger.

But following their repeated behaviour of demeaning you, it may possibly be that you will need to take a 'break' from them. If this is the case, plan your departure without threatening them or telling them where you're going. Ensure that someone such as a family member or best friend is willing to accommodate you for a day or two to allow your partner reflect on your absence.

If there are children in the relationship, your first responsibility is towards them. You must always ensure their needs are met first and with as little turmoil as possible. Children should never be victims of adult domestic disagreements.

If you have no nearby family members or close friends who can assist you through a transition, it may be that you'll need to consider seeking assistance through a service that supports domestic abuse. It's important to realise that verbal abuse can be a precursor to physical abuse!

Should your husband be calling other women the pet names he gave you?

No, a husband should not call other woman by the pet names given to his wife. Such a sharing of pet names is considered a sign of non-exclusivity, perhaps even adultery. Certainly the sharing devalues the importance of the pet name to all addressed by it.
