What was the outcome? Did she change? Is she loving towards you now?
No not more loving. She just told me I wasn't worth her time anymore. I had reached a point physically that if I fought back I could possible hurt her. From that point, it was more verbal crap.
So you standing up to the physical abuse just switched her moving to verbal abuse. Do you have a relationship with your Mom now?
You know how she treated you wasn't your fault. I have experienced very simliar issues. You have to love yourself. You know that gut feeling you have, it's your core being telling you that things aren't right. Don't look for your H to give you what you need. You give yourself what you need. This is your journey to take. You can handle it.
