Verbal Abusive Relationship
Have you been trying to figure out whether you are in an abusive relationship? Some of the tell-tale signals that you are in an abusive relationship have been listed down here to help you understand.
It rarely begins with a big issue. A relationship that started off well, where both spouses loved each other immensely and were very happy for a long period of time, can unfortunately become an abusive relationship.
One of the strongest signals of a verbal abusive relationship is when your spouse thinks you are inferior to him/her. He/she may continuously find fault with you , and would make you feel the need to confirm with them on every issue, regardless of how insignificant it is. This would give you a feeling of inadequacy as you too would start to think that you are not good enough to make decisions for yourself. They may choose to frequenty ignore ideas and propositions made by you, and may ignore criticisms of their works, as they think they are always right.
Most of the time the abuser in a verbal abusive relationship thinks it essential to keep up a good image of themselves when in public. This would mean that they treat you better in public or when people are around than they would when you are by yourselves.
Have you ever felt that your partner is constantly trying to make you feel jealous, whether it is by comparing you to old partners, or by flirting with other women when you are around? This is another common tactic attempted by abusers in a verbal abusive relationship. This is an effort to make you feel the need to keep an eye on him/her, out of concern that they may leave you for someone else, even when they have no intention whatsoever of actually leaving you.
Once you have figured out whether you are really in a verbal abusive relationship, your next move is to work out what you should do to either make your relationship work, or in situations where the situation is irreparable, how to leave your partner.
Now would be the time to act! You do not want to spend a few more years of your life being in a relationship that will never work, because as time passes it will only result in more damage to yourself both psychologically and emotionally. A verbal abusive relationship could also affect the behavior of your children as they constantly see you being treated terribly by your spouse. If you have tried to make your verbal abusive relationship work by seeing a counselor together with your spouse, and the abuse still goes on, it would be best if you walk out.
