Abusive and being abused

How do you tell a loved one they are being very emotionally abusive when they have just blamed you of the same thing? :'(

Stephanie, I can only tell you by my own experience. Yours may be different. You would hope that your loved one would recognize what they are doing. But if they don\'t, and you can\'t over look what they have done, then you must be honest with them and tell them how you feel. And if they give you an example of what you may have done, think about it and if you think you may have done it, even without meaning to, admit it like they should. Try to reach an understanding between the two of you as to how you feel. If that goes no where, and they are just hard to deal with, dust your feet off and walk on. Expect it to happen again in the future and and dry to guard yourself from the pain. Don\'t let anyone walk on top of you on purpose. You can always walk away from it. remember, it\'s not about you. Love and hugs, Danette

Say you want to talk and each tell the other what they think the other one did, try to recognize what was done and promise to do better.

Believe in yourself, Steph... What others say is unimportant, unless you ALLOW them to hurt you.
