Most people think abuse is just physical attacks such as hitting, punching, kicking, pulling hair, twisting limbs, pinching, slapping, biting, etc.
There are many other type of abusive behavior which hurt just as much or more than physical abuse. Just because an abuser stops hitting his spouse doesn’t mean he has stopped being abusive.
Anger that’s used to control, manipulate, and hold another emotionally hostage is out of control and abusive. It typically starts with name-calling, emotional jabs at a person’s self-worth, painful teasing, public insults. It progresses from there. Eventually the abuser is yelling, grabbing, pushing, slapping, and becoming increasingly aggressive and violent.
Other women are physically abused; they report the matter to police and the man get arrest. The same woman who was beaten to death drop the charges and when you ask the reason for that the woman will say, I love my husband/boyfriend without knowing that abuse can lead to death.
Love is so blind that you can choose to stay in the same house with a beast instead of living him.
