I've lost too much respect and love for him. I'm out!

@oldmanfigs says:

Why does it have to be a woman in a relationship?

@brightpage1020 says:

💕 that it’s like learning Spanish! We need a Spanish teacher, course, or app, but some guidance on which word to use when.

Thank you! 🙏

I am learning that the key to this is cleaning up my own proverbial side of the street. Dho! Easier said than done.

But with expert guidance, I can manage to learn.

Thank you!

Love the mobile or Tetris style game metaphor: When one piece of the puzzle fits, it can break barriers in others.

Knowing and doing are 2 different things for my ADHD brain. 🧠 Dho!

Thank you! This is a great place to work on myself today. Why not? Where else?

What if u have kids with him

@Zanonymous___ says:

As a husband and father of almost 6( oldest 10) , I think I can be emotional and verbally abusive at times and I don’t try to be. It just happens, I let my wife and my children know this is not okay and we turn to the lord, what is a great tool other than walking away and breathing to deal with it head on. I want to be better and I want my children to find a man who doesn’t do this. If anyone has prayers or some serious constructive criticism please reply. Thank yall and god bless. (Edit: There is no backstory because that doesn’t matter I’m the man of the house and it’s my job to lead, no matter the circumstances one can change with the right tools.)

@featherbrooke says:

Could you include both men and women?

@mok6680 says:

How do you know if it’s emotional abuse or if I’m just reading too much into things that are said?

@blackpyro2006 says:

Useless video.
TLDR = (Get professional help and heres our advertisement) nothing practical.

@janepoppet3843 says:

There is NO healing together with someone who says they don't have any issues and is unwilling to recognise their behaviours.

That's the point.

We can do everything by the book in giving healthy responses. But if the emotional abuser/narcissist is still abusive that's NOT our fault

I wouldn't ever commission a plumber to rewire my house. That's the best analogy I can give in expecting an emotional abuser/narcissist to change.

It's getting worse he's losing hisinf he's 75

@lavayou1714 says:

Men can be emotionally abused by toxic women.

@edynam9776 says:

My husband is the one providing in the house.. I've tried finding a job but still not find one so due this my husband is abusing me emotionally… hmmm

@danielleyuhas says:

I cant leave cuz i love him and couldn’t bare seeing him with someone else and treating them better than he has ever me. Im pretty sure he wld love for me to leave, i just refuse. Also dont want to give up whats half mine. N basically if i leave, i leave everything n end up with nothing but my clothes. He made sure it was ultimately set up like that.

@ellebailey5358 says:

This video was 7 minutes too long, you leave.

@tulsibloom says:

That "emphatic statement" is exactly why I clicked on this video. Thank you very much for clarifying that we (meaning us and our partner) cannot heal TOGETHER! ❤ Peace🙏🏼

@kolethchannel4000 says:

That told me absolutely nothing. But it was a down to earth advertisement

@Joshua_DeMoss says:

Lots of men get abused by toxic women too.

@aamerkhan277 says:

What about the husband who repeatedly sacrifice everything still has to face blame and no freedom . Why everyone only discussing about the negative part of husband why not about the wife ..

@Macmillerfan82-92 says:

Leaving is the best part, i had a caregiver who was abusing me Emotionally, verbally and psychologically and i couldn't take it i ended up homeless but i felt happy when i got outz the neverending nightmare of abusers, why do they keep coming in my life when i clearly do not want them?

@jodydonovan2599 says:

What if she won’t leave

@lovelyjubbly4151 says:

What if the other half ( man or woman) won't go to therapy? Mine is controlling the electricity. No lights on at night time, one shower a week, he cooks because he says I waste the gas, no hair dryer, no ironing, calls names, never physically aggressive, needs tobtell me how to put the washing out, by the way we are in our 60s, tells me i can't do anything, latest is saying i eat more than him n eat all the time, saying I'm fat which im not, no affection, could go on.. I love him but i don't like the way he treats me. Talks down to me infront of people when he wants to. What is your advice to me please

@skydancer7170 says:

I didn’t get very far into this video. I think the only way to fix an emotionally abusive relationship is to leave one. There is a book called “why does he do that? By Lundy Bancroft. Go read that book and finally see things clearly. Emotional abuse destroys you piece by piece.

@graciethankful4643 says:

Id like to go

@KoolT says:

Run baby run.

@gabrielamcb9157 says:

My sister lives in a relationship where the man doesnt want to work hard to be the main source of incomes he likes to be hanging around the house while she is working 10hrs a day… Everytime she thinks in divorce he uses the Bible saying ‘thats not Gods will and you know it you will break our sons heart’ he doesn’t want to cook or clean either. What to do?

@johnchacko1425 says:

Disney beauty and the beast promoted staying in an abusive relationship with a narsist and promoted stockholm syndrome
