Why don't others realize it is abusive to tell any other person to calm down?

We just had a question on this site asking "How do you tell your brother to calm down?" which was answered in some detail, beginning with the statement that it is emotional abuse to tell someone to calm down. So it would seem that if someone is telling others to calm down, you could cite that answer, or ask them to look it up themselves under the exact working that I have quoted. Of course, people will not necessarily be convinced, just by reading something on the internet, however, it is still better to be able to refer someone to a published opinion rather than just your own opinion.

Others may not realize it is abusive to tell someone to "calm down" because they may not understand the impact it has on the other person's emotional state. This phrase can dismiss the other person's feelings and invalidate their experience, leading to further frustration and escalation of emotions. It is important to practice active listening and empathy instead of dismissing someone's feelings.

Does an abusive person treat a new relationship better if the new person does what they say or want?
An abusive person tends to remain abusive unless they make a real effort to change. An abusive person will always be just that and no matter how much their new mate will agree with them they will still remain abusive. Abusive people either come from a family of abuse, something has happened to them in their lives that they are extremely angry at, and there is always a reason for the way they are. Sometimes it just comes down to the point that person is miserable and loves controlling their mate because they cannot control life in general. A relationship is about sharing each others dreams and opinions and the major one is respect. Neither mate should rule over the other, but share as best they can. It's a catch-22. Abusers despise submissive and obsequious people. But they also demand automatic and full compliance with their wishes and instructions.

How can you get a person to realize he is emotionally abusive and that it hurts just as bad as physical abuse?
You get them to realize by telling them. There is no way around it. Tell that person that some specific things that they do that hurt you and that you would like it to stop because it really hurts you and makes you feel bad. Being straight and honest is the best way to make someone understand. In my experience dating an emotionally abusive person, the only way is to confront them in a loving manner. However, I have also experienced that confrontation comes with more abuse; seeing as they think it as an attack on their character rather than their behavior. It has also been my experience that in the confrontation they will become defensive and aggressive, but there is no other way around it.

Are most old car salesmen abusive partners?
I realize that car salesmen have had a bad reputation for years, but I wouldn't say they are any more abusive than any other career orientated person. Abuse hits all races, the rich and the poor. Often, car salesmen are more often drinkers because they cut many of their deals over a drink or two or three even. They hang out with the other salesmen and usually hit the pubs. I'd say they fit in the category of politicians and lawyers. LOL Marcy

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.
