Yeah.
Myself.
I used to give my wife the silent treatment after arguments and I just learned this behavior in repetition is considered emotional abuse. So yes.
That behavior has since been corrected.
Looking back on it, I treated some of my old girlfriends like dogshit, (blaming them for my own failures , using them as a scapegoat, etc) and I’m at a loss for why. I try to examine my motivations and mindset at the time, but I can never come to a satisfactory answer. I knew I should have treated them better, but I chose not to. The only thing I can do is continue treating my wife well because thank goodness I learned how to treat a lady before I met my soulmate
yep. I was an emotionally unstable young man who wasn’t mature enough for a relationship. I would lie, cheat, and be all around dick sometimes.
Sometimes I think about reaching out to my high school ex and apologizing. But I’m sure she doesn’t want to hear from me lol.
I’m in a good place now. I grew up and have been with my wife for almost 17 years.
Yes and no. I do jiu-jitsu. I’m old and slow and a midget. One of my mates is a big dude on the juice. I used to talk too much shit to him and he told me he’d be sitting there nervous when I gave him shit. He did regularly bash me but I was wrong.
I mostly stopped doing it and now I let him give me shit more.
I was a major dick to some kid in high school, for no reason. I felt bad about it once I grew up more so I looked him up and apologized to him. It made no sense, especially since I was picked on myself. I still think about that shit often.
I’ve been emotionally abused in my marriage.
I don’t treat others like this. I don’t even trash talk when playing video games.
