There’s an old adage it’s not what you say, it’s how you say it. When dealing with an Abusive Husband, there are about a dozen ways he can say it but they all add up to Verbal Abuse.

Jokes at your expense, name calling, interrupting, trivializing or dismissing your opinions or feelings are just another form of Verbal Abuse. Are you lacking calm, civil and respectful conversations and dialogue in your relationship? Is every word and deed a sword fight of explaining yourself, apologizing and trying to be understood? You may be dealing with a Narcissist.

Abusive husbands aren’t always aware they are being controlling and rude. Because of their own insecurity and triggered states of fear of abandonment, the NPD spouse will often berate or shout or use some other form of Verbal Abuse to feel better about himself and the prospect of keeping the relationship intact. Sadly, making your partner the target of Verbal Abuse is a surefire way of, sooner or later, sending them away.

Abusive husbands aren’t soley to blame. For every verbal abuser there has to be ...
... a co-dependent listener, or receiver. There are steps you can learn to quickly begin the journey of changing both his abusive behavior and your co-dependence that colludes with it.
