it doesnt seem like it will get better if it has been going on for awhile. even verbal abuse hurts like hell. men dont seem to well with change unfortunately. but i really hope it works out for you && good luck momma.

maybe she would consider going to counseling with you? and def. get out of your abusive relationship when you can before it gets worse. I know you dont want it to happen again but guys dont seem to stop once they start. but good luck mama

please get out of this relationship   your story really touched me. my ex hit me infront of my baby,5 years on she remembers it & even though i spilt up with him 4 years ago i will never forget her crys when she saw what happend,its heartbreaking   you seem mature minded,save some money,tell friends & family you need help & get away from him xx

I have a story to tell. Something I need to get off my chest so I can sleep tonight.
I was 11 years old, both my mother and my sister were out, so it was just me and my step-father in the house.
I fell asleep on the couch watching tv, and I woke up to find my step-father standing over me. He grabbed me by the hand and lead me into his bedroom. He put a porn tape in the VCR and turned it on. I felt really uncomfortable at this point and I tried to leave. He pulled me back onto the bed and started reaching down my pants. What happened next is a complete blur, I faintly remember him on top of me, feeling immense terror and pain, trying to get away.
When it was all over I locked myself in my room and I cried for hours.
I have never told anyone the details of this story.
Even now as I'm typing it I'm shaking. But I feel very relieved now that its over. I can leave it behind and stop living in fear.

No, they divorced years ago.

well i was married to my first husband ( yes i was married very young) he was verbaly and physically abusve to me. he would call me names and tell me if he couldnt have me no one could , he was super jelous and when i was giving birth to our son he was whispering in my ear that he was gona kik my ass cuz there hapened to be a male nurse there and i was just so scared . he kept me from my family and once he cheated on me and i called him mom crying ( she is supposedly christian ) and told her and she had the nerve to tell me it was my fault that he played me cuz i didnt give my self to him as i should!!! also she told me he had the right to tell me what to do and who i can hang around with. i couldnt even see my famly and my son wasnt allowed to see them either . my mom would visit once in a hwile and had to give me money to get my things cuz he would bitch about not having money for himself,. also he would hit me infront of out son and once he threw me down the stairs when my son was 7 months and he got so scared and cried in his crib....finally i built up the courage and left him and it was hell getting away but now he is locked up for life and me andmy son have moved on and i have a wonder ful husband and a 4 month old daughter by him. i feel guilty sometimes because i put my son thru all that shit but he is my rock and he was the only one there when i needed someone to hold, i love my son dearly....and i thank god he gave me the strength to leave alive so that is my story if you have questions please feel free to ask me

Wow, thanks. I love the quote.

Quoting Bekkers:“ Wow, thanks. I love the quote.”

Thank you

i just sit here crying reading all of these horribly sad stories and my heart goes out to all of you.i have an abusive husband myself.he is verbally abusive.he calls me all kinds of names making me feel totally worthless and lonely like i have never before.when he decides to be nice he can make you feel like a princess but eventually his bad mean and cruel side always come back out.he was treated very porly and verbally abused as a child and now he thinks that is ok to do to me.he snaps at me as soon as there is a minimal thing that bothers him.
we have two little ones a boy that is 17 months old and a girl who is 4 months.
i can't take this anymore but i can't leave either because of my condition.i am from Europe and he does not let me take the kids.i have tried talking to a lawyer and also the police but there is nothing they can do really since he is actually not hitting me.apparently verbal abuse cannot be proved or condemned... i feel so trapped and unhappy.he does not hit me but his mean words crush my spirit and hurt my soul.i wish i was strong like i used to be.now i just feel weak and stuck in an unhappy marriage.i just cry my days away when my children can't see me.
