Everyone deserves to be appreciated. There is never any guarantees of that of course. But, if you have had honest conversations about the situation with no improvement, then it is abuse.

@lasergraph yes. the few times I have the courage to talk about it, haha, my husband treats me like he can't believe i have the gall to do that. he feels that I'm in subordinate or something

@darktippedrose Too many men just aren't "in tune" with their partner. I don't think that can be taught.

@lasergraph I would agree with you, but I'm the second woman married to my husband. I've talked to his ex-wife. This is who he is. No mistakes. he's doing it on purpose

@darktippedrose Obviously he has a history of this behavior, pretty set in, I would suspect.

@lasergraph yes he is. I tried to get him to see how his dad corrupted him when he was young, he thinks theres nothing wrong.

@darktippedrose I don't think he ever will, it is too late for him.

@lasergraph i know. Its so funny. I say this is who he is. And others tell me to have hope. the one time a girl doesn't try to change him and accepts his behavior, and they tell the girl to hope he'll change.

go figure.
