If you are an adult being bullied by your spouse, what would you do to stop the cycle of abuse?
Answer:
Tell him that this behavior will stop or you will leave. And then have the courage to follow through.
therapy, leave him or knife
I would have left at the first sign of abuse of any sort.
Leave
Get out the relationship, seek professional help and avoid those types of relationships
What kind of abuse has already occurred? If it's verbal its best to verbalize back that you don't like being spoken to that way and it needs to stop. If the person is reasonable, the abuse cycle should stop. If the abuse is physical, I would have NO patience for that type of behavior and distance myself from them IMMEDIATELY. Don't let things slide, it will just get worse!
I would go see a psychological counselor and talk through my options. From my experiences at counseling, if you can't get someone to leave you alone and they are craving attention, one of the best things to do is give them the silent treatment or disappear every time they do something out of line, and LET THEM KNOW that you will continue to do this every time they do that thing.
Your experiences are unique, though, and that's why I think going to a counselor yourself is necessary.
You must leave, now, before it gets worse because it will. Abusers rarely change, trust me, I have been there. Then get help for yourself. Just because he may not be physically violent now does not mean it will not progress to that point. Get out & get help.
