Hey there I was(still married same man) in a very verbally abusive relationship. Hubby even hurt my kids feelings but they don't know it since they are special need. I must have been such a special person that people right here in this group starting praying for me. I was not about to continue letting this man hurt me. A miracle from god happen & so many prayers that suddenly my hubby stoped verbally abusing me & the kids. He changed from being a jerk to being nice. He is even calling me sexy. Complimenting me all the time. When I thought there was no hope there is.
Being a lawyer or w.e. Doesn't mean you don't have feelings. You are human just like everyone. Put your foot down & I did put my foot down boy did I have enough. You are strong & counseling does help if people accept wrong doing. Wishing you all the best.
