Have you ever married someone solely by force?

I was compelled to marry someone I detested. Certainly not by my parents, but rather by him. He blackmailed me until I agreed to be in a relationship with him. Each time I attempted to flee, he used the same blackmail tactics to keep me in place. I despise him tremendously. When he attempts to kiss me, I recoil; when I look at him, I feel sick to my stomach. Occasionally, he would cry in order to make me feel sorry for him; it's pitiful. My life is a complete mess; I went from being prosperous and wealthy to marrying a slacker who does absolutely nothing. I believe I will eventually admit to my family that this relationship is unhealthy; I resent him and do the exact opposite of everything he suggests. He is and will always be my primary adversary.

Let's just say... I believed that my marriage was the lesser of two evils at the time - though, given how things are sixteen years later... I wonder which one really was the worst of the two???
