@sanjose528 If you want to leave him then just do it. Talk to family and friends and get all the protection you need. You have to start protecting yourself in all necessary measures befor you tell him about your decision.

When you read the part about emotional abusers being "Attractive" you need to remember the way they acted when you first met them. Not necessarily attractive in the "looks" department, but these people can be VERY charming. Like a spider weaving a web, it looks beautiful wit the snow glistening on it, but you dont realize its there for them to catch you and then destroy you. Their "Charm" usually disappears after you have been with them for about 3 months because they cant keep up the disguise.

I thaught you were talking about how my wife acts to me until I saw the postings were about men. Know this, I might not get hit. But the words she uses on me (especially in front of our children) hurt alot worse than ever being hit. I am not addicted to her in any way. I have to stay here to protect my children so they dont grow up thinking that life is the same way she see's it. They are already starting to think negative, and thinking that nothing will get better. Poor kids.

I didn't know I had a "love addiction" to my emotional abuser until someone pointed it out to me. Why is it that these people still tell you they "love you" despite the fact that they know that you know that's a lie?

As a victim of emotional abuse off my mother, i can honestly say it has destroyed my self esteem , these people don't realise how much it affects the "abused" person

What if they never get angry? My boyfriend was Mr. Wonderful in the beginning, but soon started teasing me relentlessly and ignoring me when I told him to stop. He makes fun of me constantly, even after we have been intimate, he will say crude things about my body or the way I look, smell, etc. When I cry or get angry, he tells me: Why do you do this to yourself? The crazy thing is, he never gets upset. Never raises his voice. He is always calm and funny and collected. Everyone loves him.

Hey! Not all abusers are men! I fear that I am being emotionally abused by my girlfriend who I love very much =( However, I'm not sure =( I would appreciate some help, thank you.

re: the above, call the police, etc: one huge problem about emotional abuse is that while it is now accepted knowledge that is as or probably more damaging than physical abuse; it is not acknowledged by law enforcement/the legal system. Without any physical abuse (USA "the system" will not help you. I don't know where the answer lies, I believe it is a "crime" to humiliate, control, take advantage of . another person to the point of killing their spirit, but it is perfectly legal.

some of this is useful, but not everyone who's attractive, comes from a broken home and had a childhood trauma is an emotional abuser!

The other stuff speaks for itself, but all this pseudo-science can be dangerous in real life scenarios.

TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS and be aware of their BEHAVIOUR!

What if the emotional abuser is a family member and you can't get away?

@greenman92553 My grandfather lived in the shed on three different properties for the entire time I knew him until he died. My grandmother had a toxic mouth.
