It's awful and because they are women, it's acceptable?
Careful. Being that guy who hates women or that lady who hates men won't serve you. Men (like myself) and women (like wayfarer) are equally free to leave relationships that don't serve us anymore.

Of course not. If they punch you, call the cops. If they say nasty things, hang up. Have and enforce healthy boundaries. Their right to extend their fist ends where your nose begins.

They're not trying to destroy your life--any more than I'm trying to destroy someone else's life when I defeat a competitor or fire an employee. It's sometimes a side effect. She wants to be happy. She thinks you work against that. Maybe they are right (as wayfarer and I were). Maybe they are wrong. Time will tell, no?
