I was verbally and sadly physically abusive to my wife. She had to drop the sledgehammer on me for me to make the changes necessary in my life. She still wants a divorce which I'm willing to give.
if you go to http://mevac.proboards.com/ you can get support from victims and Recovering abusers and gain valuble information on why he does what he does. You can also look up mevac on google. Mevac stands for men ending verbal abuse and control.
You can not reason with him and change him if he doesn't want to change. He has to be willing to make the journey for himself.
I'm JTJ on Mevac. Good luck and may your healing begin.
