You keep calling it “attitude.” It’s not. He doesn’t like you. Say it out loud or keep explaining it away. #toxicrelationship #emotionalabuse #marriagerealities #relationshipadvice #womenwhoknow

That man, that's mean to you, he doesn't love you, he doesn't even like you, he fucking hates you and I know you don't want to say that word so you call it stress, you call it pressure, you're like he's going through a lot at work. Is he really? Look at the pattern, the way he talks to you, sharp, irritated like you're annoying him by existing, the way he reacts to you like whatever you're about to say is wrong before you even finish his sentence. You're crying and he's still arguing his point. You're hurt and he's still trying to win the thought. That's not a man struggling to love you. That's a man that's comfortable hurting you day in and day out. And let me ask you this, once the last time he apologized, like really apologized, not I'm sorry you feel that way, not can we just move on. I mean a real apology. Yeah, that's what I thought. And here's the part that you're skipping. He doesn't do that to everyone. He can be calm, respectful, nice, even smile. You've seen it. Just not with you. So now you're sitting there going, what am I doing wrong? You're not doing anything wrong. You're just the one he picked to take it out on. Did you ever notice that you're easier on him than you'd ever be on a friend? If your best friend told you her man talked to her like this, you tell her to leave him. But for yourself, you make excuses. Instead of calling it what it is, you keep trying to fix it. Keep trying to be softer, quieter, easy to deal with, hoping finally he'll treat you right. Because this isn't confusion, this is who he is. And he doesn't need to change. He likes treating you this way. Send this to a friend who needs to stop saying, but I love him. Stay here.
