Verbally abusive women don't change.

When i was a kid, i remember a couple who lived close to us. My mom said she thought the man was abused. She said she'd hear the woman shouting about him hurting her but when she saw them outside, he had all the black eyes and bruises. This was in the 70s. You never heard of men being abused in those days.

‘Sarcasm is veiled anger. It’s abusive’. This is SO true. I have always said this.

My partner of 30 years , would not touch me , and felt like everything she did was to destroy me . Punched me a few times and screamed so often I hated her so much I never want to see her again .I left , and I miss my abuser , but working on myself. I have PTSD .

there were so many hurtful things my ex said to me, and whenever I would bring them up she would say this .. not once did she say sorry, I even told her "think about how it makes me feel to hear these things?", still no "sorry". I completely agree with this statement, if you are telling them something hurt you or offend you, the only acceptable response is "I'm sorry"

There is no nobility in tolerating relational abuse, this will only lead to deserting your principles and adopting toxic behaviors. Do not stay in that. You are deluding yourself. Go zero tolerance. It is the best thing you can do for all concerned.

I think this happened to me. I had ‘too many mental health issues.’ When I brought up emotions it was called ‘psychobabble.’ I was ‘full of sh*t.’ She called me terrible names during mediation so that she could try to get more child custody. So now I only communicate with her using a coparenting app. I changed my phone number and she doesn’t have it. I appreciate the reminder that this happens.

The legal system favors women. The Duluth model is institutionalized top down in a form of blatant bias against men nationwide. Men have been fighting to advocate for themselves and their children for decades and been getting laughed at and derided. That doesn't mean that all men are innocent or that all women are abusing the system. BUT for the many women violators who are abusing men there is almost ZERO recompense against them. Women instigate a large percentage of domestic violence incidents but even if they are the clear aggressors the police will most likely take the man into custody. Lesbians have the highest rate of domestic violence of any demographic.

This is too real. My long time friend has always love opportunistic and toxic women. I helped him get into therapy. He's going twice per week. I'm thankful that he's getting the help that he needs. He's a good man but he's addicted to the toxic.

I’ve changed. I went to a therapist for anger management. I didn’t realize how much I was hurting him. Eventhough my aggressiveness was rooted and some deep resentment. I do get tired of being blamed for ever single thing and I’m learning how not to react. But I’m much happier and getting better at being more present. But he doesn’t want to see it. He just lives in the past. It doesn’t matter how much I change or improve myself he just will not live life with me as a new person. And I am learning to be more feminine. He just doesn’t want to look at himself or how he has contributed. He has called me horrible names and been verbally abusive as well but we can only talk about what I’ve done. He’s allowed and doesn’t have to recognize it but I have to.

I can just say, from my own experience with a woman who said much of the same thing. She didn’t let me experience and express the emotions I needed to, to fully move on. She’d punish me every time, making my frustration with her worse. Being better also means being open and understanding. I did that for her every time I knew I was in the wrong. I let her express her emotions and signalled to her very clearly on an emotional level that I regretted whatever I might’ve done to upset her, I showed understanding for why she felt that way, I listened to her. My ex couldn’t do that for me. She’d berate me and tell me I hadn’t moved on ‘unlike me’, from the abuse she had put me through. She wasn’t apparently allowed to be a better person. All I wanted was for her us to have one lighthearted moment where we could look back and laugh at what happened, and she’d be understanding and supportive, not shame me, and make me even more frustrated. I dare say, she hadn’t grown as much as she thought in the end

Put all the blame on him. Way to waste money on that therapist. The mortgage people love it when therapists have people like you as a client. I hope he leaves you as the worthless, broken little victim that you are.

I dont know what my ex had. But she would have these sudden major mood swings and degrade me, and shout at me in public, then be really lovely to me again. This started early, like a month into the relationship. She gaslighted me on many occasions and would always twist things when i confronted her about her behaviour and make it all my fault. She broke up with me and had a new guy immediately after and posted it everywhere. Shes a totally different person in public than in private and shes good friends with some of my friends which i hate because they dont know her like i do. Weve been 1 year no contact now and im working on myself a tonne

So why is everyone putting 100% of the blame on men. How is it that no one is advocating for men. Men act out YES. Women micro agress & because they don't act out physically they believe their abuse is less harmful. When will this be explained, 🤔

I’m going through this right now and am afraid to even leave. She has accused me of things that are not true. It’s horrible. Help

She will run out... u don't have to live with her to love her. A NARCISSISTIC person can't change over night nor do they ever change cause they don't feel broken or a need to change to even keep a person they love. It's easy for us empaths like me to b the victim of many NARCISSISTIC people. They look for people who care a lot for others more than themselves. Ck out how to become a sigma empath. I have a female narsc n my room I share in a homeless shelter. She doesn't like me talk n or add n n any of my thoughts on her verbal same ol blah, blah & BLAH from time she wakes up to just b 4 my nite time meds kick in. I just lay there as if I'm past out. I made the mistake of ask n her what is the thing under her feet . Instead of answer me she yelled & said,"ITS NOT AN IT ITS A THAT!". I asked her what she was talk n about & she reaffirmed I was use n imprpopper English! I had enough & told her,"WHAT DOES IT MATTER WHAT I CALL IT OR THAT CAUSE WE DONT LIVE IN A FANCY HOTEL & U R NOT THE PRESIDENT & IM NOT WRITING A PAPER FOR A SCHOOL OR A JOB SO IT DOESN'T MATTER"! Than she released more outrageous narsc rage at me with fingers pointing at me & her face turn n red as fire very pist off at me for point n out the way I talk n here does not need to b corrected & that she's not my teacher nor my former professor in the college I attended so stop just stop overly correcting everything I say or do!" Result was she yelled out more till more people came run n inside our room ask n what's wrong to her. She kept tell n everyone how I don't speak proper English! She has not corrected me since. I barely say anything to her anymore. Life is sure a lot easier on me without her narcs b.s. she's been throw n at whomever her empathic victims are

I love your calmness. You're referring to my own little human behaviour project called the fantasy/ideal concept. Many researchers have definitely some idea of what is going on. 🤔 in my own research, we study this deeply and peel back the onion. People are internal beings. Anything outside of our flesh is external or extrinsic objects/materials. People who abuse usually live externally, so to speak. They create what I call a fantasy of who their partner should be. In my research, this is something that happens when a caregiver doesn't bond with their infant within the first 8 months. So what happens is that when the person becomes committed to their partner, if their fantasy partner doesn't match with the real partner (internal person), then this causes chronic ambivalence in the psyche. I refer to this as inappropriate and delusional pain. Depending on the person's understanding of internal and external worlds, they then start to become angry, upset, irritated, and extremely disappointed. Disappointment is the key factor in the fantasy not matching up with the real partner. So what does one do when they don't get what they want? They'll behave in all sorts of ways as a means to punnish their partner for not matching up to their delusional fantasy. Many mental health issues/conditions can cause an unhealthy fantasy. Porn in general, no parental nurturing and the inability to understand that people are whole individual human beings with their own feelings, bodies, minds, and emotions. I've taken a bit of whole object relations and some fantasy bonding theories to mesh my own research. Abuse is the part in the middle of the two circles. How can we train the brain to learn how to let go of this invisible measuring tape that some people hold? Teaching people about compassion and that love is not lust. In my research, we imagine that a person is 2 circles. The smaller circle inside the larger circle is the real person or the internal being. This is compassionate, empathy, understanding, love, kindness, and all their emotions and feelings. The outer circle is the flesh. The superficial part of life. When we can learn to bond and connect with the real person, the internal circle, we can learn to accept the person for they are and not who we want them to be. Humans are like onions, peeling back each layer to see the truth, and that's where unconditional love lives. Some call that the self.

I am a woman that is healing and working through this. Age 33. I believe that women are unable to resolve this because they are living in unsafety and fear. This was the case for me. I was blessed with a husband that loved me unconditionally and put up with things that he shouldn’t have. I felt dead inside, and I am starting to heal in the context of love and safety. I’ve been able to acknowledge my abusive behavior and address the root cause over the course of the past decade. Continuing work. Very difficult to rewire fear. I would love to talk to you.

I did find myself in relationships with verbally abusive men, but I’ve healed and done the work to see where I allowed mistreatment due to my fathers womanizing ways. Men do not get the validation on this topic enough and I applaud you for making this content to support them and present the opportunity for them to escape the abuse and have a chance at TRUE RECIPROCAL AND RESPECTFUL love and partnership.

Be encouraged and take the lessons from that experience and move forward as a more knowledgeable and well-rounded potential partner for whoever is meant for you.

Men are more Honest than women, emotionally and psychologically and will seek help if they think it will make them a better man. I've never met a woman yet or heard of a woman who doesn't feel superior to men, especially emotionally and many of them will make sure that men know that.

My wife grew up in a family and broken home but her mom would say anything no matter what or how. They are also from NY and I’m from GA so it’s the northern personality I think too compared to being from the south. Northerners tend to be a bit more rude….I know stereotypes but there’s some truth in stereotypes. She had an issue only seeing negative in anyone as well always assumed someone was against her smh. I do see her making changes but we’re divorced now so it is what it is. Instead of apologizing and allowing us to speak on it without interjecting her feelings again she rather go be elsewhere.

I know I make mistakes, and I’m not the perfect guy in the world, I’m sorry I take awful pictures, or cooked the chicken a little to long in the oven and it dried out. I feel so insecure over such small things, I was never like this, I was always the chilled down to earth person, but lately I realize I stress and worry over it. That I can’t relax, if I don’t please this perfectionist I live with, I know I will be called stupid, or called a child, or told I can’t do anything by myself. Whenever I speak up and tell her it hurts my feelings how I’m constantly belittled for my mistakes, she mocks me and says I’m over dramatic. I straight up told her I sometimes didn’t like her, and she laughed and said I was being dramatic. Because of this sometimes I question the validity of how I feel. I used to feel so confident and capable, but I can’t even eat something out of the fridge because I’m worried she will get mad at me for not saving it for her, so I don’t even touch it, and will later be called wasteful for not eating it. I have to try and plan the things I do around her and how she will respond, I don’t get joy anymore, I don’t do things for her out of joy and love, I simply do it because I’m worried she will get mad and yell at me and call me selfish. I work from home. Because of this she doesn’t seem to take my job or my responsibilities seriously, she always criticizes why I don’t clean or cook if I’m home all day, but it’s because I’m working and am busy. I have things I have to do as well….but because I don’t leave the house and work on my feet, she sorta acts as if I’m not working really hard.

Took me awhile to get to this video.

I think I might be dealing with this myself currently… I’m not perfect and had a drug relapse when she all but forced me to stop taking my medication that kept me sober… I thought I could do it… but anyway this behavior started years prior to my two month relapse… it’s difficult to take the pain from the woman you gave your life to and vowed to love for eternity… marriage counseling didn’t work for us (she wanted to try and report the female Councelor to the state board of social workers for telling my wife that she needed to do some work on her side that she didn’t agree with) I’m out of ideas and she’s more than ready for a divorce… she’s already moving back to Long Island with our two babies to live at her parents house… she claims she wants to buy another house on Long Island with me after we sell in Pennsylvania but I feel the situation is rather sketchy… HELP

I think 90 - 99% of counselors are ladies. So that means she'll always side with wife. You work 10 hour days then met at the door with ungrateful anger daily. But it's never her. You try going out to get space only to be followed getting screamed it.

Does "I hope your plane crashes while at the airport waiting to take off to see her " is that abuse?

Do you REALLY have to ask????

Does this count as "verbal abuse"? My boss was upset I had signed up for a one-person shift. I'll admit, I am much better with a helping hand and guide, but come on, that's no excuse for being insensitive. One of our student leader's responsibilities is organizing who works which shifts on the schedule, and my boss scolded him for not noticing I had signed up for a one-person shift. When she asked him if she thought I could do the shift, I answered for him with a firm "yes," because I felt belittled by her. She said she didn't think so, was all "I've told you not to sign up for shifts by yourself, I've been very clear about that, I don't know how much clearer I can get for you to listen" (something like, that, so I'm not perfectly quoting her), and she told me I need someone there to give me instructions and guide me. I'm mad at myself for not standing up to her. She intimidates me when she's in a bad mood, but still, at the very least, I should've told her "my family always taught me to be self-confident and believe in my abilities," to challenge her to coldly disagree with that. Can't believe she would condescend me like that.

My wife and I have been married for 12 years, separated for 2 and so much of this video resonates with me. "Please stop calling me that." "Please stop saying that". "That's not true!". If I brought up a current issue (her being passive aggressive or hypocritical) 20 minutes later she'd be trying to get me to realize that I should apologize to her for something that happened years ago instead and my bringing up this issue became seen as another attack on her that I should be sorry for. Meanwhile, I was expected to accept her complaints as valid, even when she couldn't give examples of recent offenses. Lastly, there is still a pervasive expectation that she be forgiven for anything that happened before last week, but anything I did over the last 14 years even though I did it once and improved afterward, (besides getting angry) has historically remained on the table to be brought up as a countermeasure when I wanted her to stop the abuse. It is helpful to know that the probability of her changing for the long term is unlikely, but what is becoming more important to me is the possibility that my resilient hope is actually evidence of my own great flaw. Why after countless opportunities to do the opposite, would one give their abuser any consideration toward reconciliation?

Hello I'm sitting in my car I left the house my wife is always verbally abusing me alot and your story sounds exactly the same as mine if I try to tell her it's not ok to say that to me she said I deserve it because of something years ago and I deserve it because she said I do yesterday she called me shit and today she's calling me ugly ugly all morning other day she told me to go die in my sleep I'm feeling pretty low and I never solve anything I go back but nothing gets solved because she thinks I deserve to be talked to like this

@@a.g.hustlegarland4197 Hey bro sorry to hear you're going through that. Nobody deserves to be disrespected like that. You didn't ask for advice but if it's consistent like that you gotta look out for you and get outta there IMO. My issue was made more complicated because we had kids and she was fantastic some days. It'd stay that way long enough to hope it was behind us, then for no reason it would start up again. But yeah we have to put ourselves first sometimes. Love ourselves more than we love her. It's even better for the kids long term sometimes if you split. But hey whatever you choose, know that it is your choice and I wish you luck.

Thank you brother

The worst thing that we can do is allow people to say "its because they were so abused." We are not powerless. Men are abused too. Yet they change. We get to choose.

Sounds too familiar. My mothers perm was more natural than she was.

Not true. My wife ( not sure that’s the correct description) is a narcissist, verbal abuser. She withhold physical affection. She wasn’t abused during childhood but was overly spoilt by her parents. She’s the Queen in her family since young. Lacked discipline and proper upbringing.

Sounds like BPD partner

Wow💯Wow💯Wow💯

Narcissist Wife doesnt appreciate any thing at all everything i do ive changed in many ways all for her but she see no wrong in herself. I get called narcissistic but its actually her

My experience is women have become so verbally abusive they will curse you out and then they get away with it. They are absolutely terrible. If I did what women did in the workplace I would be fired.

@@jesusisdead Facts. Only in his case, when and if he’s discriminated against, his litigation isn’t against the woman, but against the company that allows it to happen on their watch, as he is very familiar with the labor laws and their requirement to provide a safe and comfortable work atmosphere. They would definitely have to settle with him to make the accusation go away, as it’s no way to spin surveillance once in the hands of an attorney specializing in civil rights abuse. None of the rest of us even consider recording all interactions for future legal defense. It’s what he’s learned over a career in corporate America

Your content is good but if you really want to speak up for men, why don’t you use research by male researchers and use examples that actually deal with men being abused by women, rather than the other way around. Female abuse gurus like Patricia Evans and Leslie Vernick perpetuate a lot of fallacies that are detrimental to men and to marriages in general. For one thing they insist that abuse is all about control, which simply is not true. There are many reasons why people abuse others, including the possibility that they are being abused themselves, or their partner is withholding sex, etc., etc. Another fallacy is that if you feel abused then you are abused. However once again there are multiple reasons that people feel abused, and our feelings are not necessarily a dependable guide to objective truth. another fallacy is the thinly veiled assertion that most abuse overwhelmingly is done by men toward women. Again not true. Research indicates that women engage in verbal and emotional abuse more than men. They also engage in physical abuse more than one might think, but men seldom report being abused, physically or otherwise, and women are injured far more often than men due to physical abuse by male partners. another fallacy is how they list 15 or 20 or 30 characteristics or traits of verbal abuse, and tell women if they’ve experienced any of these, or any three or four of these, they are in an abusive relationship. Once again, many of those characteristics are things which happen in normal marital conflict, and are not necessarily “abuse“ according to objective and credible benchmarks. but then we have to follow the money, because more women than men are likely to take on a victim mentality, and more women than men pay to buy books and take self-help classes, so these abuse gurus stand to make obscene amounts of money by convincing gullible women that they are the victims of abuse.For what it’s worth.

I can appreciate that you want to protect women. This post is based on the science around women who abuse man. Don’t confuse that to mean that I’m condoning Mens poor behavior or somehow men don’t do these things… I made it very clear in the introduction that this is a post to help men so please don’t project the poor treatment you’ve received from men onto this post. It’s not valid and it’s not warranted and it could be seen as a form of control and verbal abuse because that’s what a verbally abusive woman does. She can’t except the truth and she gaslights and blames the man. Again, this is a post that is based on evidence of female abusive women it is meant to help men who are too ashamed to seek help. Please don’t rob them of the opportunity to get help. We have done an amazing job as a society to re-educate men and stop the abuse of women. We now need to afford that same courtesy towards men because it happens on both sides so please allow that process to happen

@@kennyweiss Hey, sorry it took a while to respond but I've been away for a bit. I think we're getting our wires crossed a little in communication. I'm not attempting to put the focus on male abuse of women. I'm attempting to say that even if you're a straight man, the things described in your video that can be done to a man by a woman can also be done by other men to a man, even if not romantically involved. The book you read from describes an untreatability that's also been attributed to men of a specific abuser type, and the cost described in the book of what the abuser would need to sacrifice also applies to both genders. The book, in my experience, draws too clear and rigid a line between the feminine and the male in terms of what type of damage leads to the behaviors exhibited, or how profound it would be for the one who incurred that damage. So just because it's a male platonic friend doing it doesn't mean it ain't abuse, or that one should expect improvement. And just because the abuser is a man doesn't mean their damage is any less profound than if they are a woman. In short, I'm not saying one is a problem and the other is not, they both are. And for men the danger of this can come from any gender or type of relation. The threat you mention is real, and extremely serious. But make sure you don't have people only look for that danger in one part of the population. Other than that bit, everything else rings true to me, and is unquestionably important. There IS a culture in which it seems easier for women to gasslight men as though they are the abuser, rather than the abused. And that's an extremely important part of this. Where a lot of abusive men are slowly running out of other options than to 'pay the piper', abusive women seem to be gaining major advantages from the very culture established to end abuse. So long as such pathways stay open, it seems to me that we can expect fewer women to seek treatment. This type of abuser has a tendecy to pick whatever they consider easiest, and admitting wrongdoing ranks extremely low on the 'easy' list. Blaming the abused, on the other hand... seems much easier to them. And our culture lets them do it.
