Re: Something wrong with me? (AKA ,NO!)

I keep thinking and thinking about this post, and I hope Robbalee is still reading this forum.

I think one of the big myths of relationships is that somehow words aren't as hurtful as fists. I believe they are, that things which are said can never be unsaid, and that someone who bludgeons with words is as despicable as someone who causes bruises and breaks bones.

I believe with all my heart that if you love someone, you'll treat them at least as well as you'd treat a complete stranger on the street, or a business partner, or co-worker. I believe that familiarity doesn't breed a right to be abusive, just because the person "knows you" and "ought to understand". Ever. And I believe that applies to words as well as deeds.

Robbalee, I know everybody else already said this, but please, get counselling. Take your husband. If he won't go, go by yourself. And don't believe - if it comes to that -that you must stay in a bad relationship for the sake of the child, because children don't know how to cope with unresolved tensions between their parents. They feel insecure.

Be well, and take care.
