Lets hope he does.

Then if he stops all is well and he may stop for a while, but of he has always done that, Good Luck! If it did not bother you you would not have come here so don't say "it's not that bad"
I know it is easier said than done, but verbally abusive relationships are not good ones. Manipulative ones are not good ones. When you get sick and tired of it, you will leave. No one can tell you when that point comes.
I wish you well.

Thank you homegirl

GOOD... GLAD YOU SPOKE. WELL DONE.

He needs to know you have parameters, and also that you can communicate and advise him what is and what is not acceptable.

If you have to "advise" him all the time... it may be more than you want in the long run.

It's your call. You are not trapped.

I know that, thank you for the advise all. I hope it works out but I know that it isn't the end of the world if it doesn't.

Good Missy.

Stand your ground. It's not unattractive to be a strong woman.
He gets love when he deserves it...
