Is this abuse?
Comments

Nearly every man you meet is a decent, reasonable human being who would never, ever consider behaving like this. But objects like Butterflys husband give men a bad name. it stinks.
Butterfly - we are all taking this really seriously. And we are all rooting for you. Good luck!0 -
BM if you're still around your orginal question was
'Is this abuse'
time to ask yourself new questions now
'Am I living the life I want to? Do I feel happy and safe?'
if the answer's no - go. Don't look back.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

I hope you've confided all in your friends and they've given you a lift, BM. Read your posts again, add everything up and just walk away without a backward glance. Time to move forward and start a new adventure full of wonderful new emotions and experiences, without fear. Go for it hun, when you've done it, you'll wonder why you didn't find it easier to go much earlier. It'll be okay, it really will but you have to get away at the first opportunity.11th Heaven prizes Number 103

Dear all
Sorry couldn't post... Still at home, may exit here fast.
Talked to colleagues, who wanted me to go parents.
Couldn't do it. But finally rang WA at last, and will get key worker.
Baby steps. So drained after telling friends, like all my energy sapped, got questioned a lot, and v tired.
OH hogged pc a lot, so first chance to post..... Get feeling that he doesn't want me on here.
Don't think, even though things bad, that I have got to the point in my head yet to be able to leave IYKWIM? Crazy, tired, weary, hope WA can help:ANow MF (thanks in part to following advice from MSE - cheers!)

Oh! Well done for phoning!
You have taken the first step. So proud of you (((BM))) :A0 -
Relieved you are safe
Of course he doesn't want you on here - you may get an alternate pov
Keep holding on to what we have been saying, keep in touch with WA. Your h will try and cut you off from all support. Take care - slightest doubt, 999 and leg it! Seriously.0 -
I am really glad you are OK and a big well done for ringing WA, excellent step forward. Keep going lovey you can do this.
I am, like everyone else concerned for your safety, especially after your shower incident. If you feel you are in danger please ring 999 and leave xxI have a gift for enraging people, but if I ever bore you it'll be with a knifeLouise Brooks
All will be well in the end. If it's not well, it's not the end.Be humble for you are made of earth. Be noble for you are made of stars0 -
btw - if he suspects that you are getting support via pc then expect virus, him hogging it, him checking your internet history, unexplained sledgehammer through motherboard...
You can always log on at library etc. Or just call one of your friends.0 -
Well done that's the first step. Though I feel you should get out now. I'm worried in case his weird behaviour escalates. The bathroom incident was very strange. Its him having power and control over you and thats not good. Please please get out soon. You will have lots of support. Its scary I know but just think how much better your life will be not walking on eggshells all the time. You can do it I know you can. I'm thinking of you.0
