writes:Dear friends. I am disintegrating and breaking into pieces emotionally. My husband is constantly making me feel small, even in front of other people. I can’t do anything without him criticizing it harshly. He will say it so harshly I feel like crying. To him I cannot do anything good or great. I have a degree and am still looking to find a job.so for now, I am a housewife. I do all the housework so diligently. Shopping, financials but he does not seem to appreciate what I do. Recently I have been doing driving lessons to get a driver’s licence, but I have never seen such discouragement in my life. I do my lessons with a different model car and the first time I touched his car from one of my lessons, He shouted at me so harshly: you are too slow. You are not good enough, you can never drive, can’t you just drive like those small boys, those ladies etc, you are wasting my money with all those lessons. Guys, I have lost my confidence, I feel so discouraged about ever driving. I am emotionally torn in this marriage. I love my husband but his attitude is destroying my love for him. He makes me feel worthless, useless, like I am very very bad, like I am always wrong and him never wrong. If I talk about it to him he says you just talk too much. I feel so horrible as if I cannot do better. What can I do to help myself? I have one child.

 In short, you can LEAVE him. He's an up tight, jealous, possessive, control freak. How long can you really put up with this?

So leave, grieve and rebuild your life or stay and be slowly ground down into a woman you don't even know anymore raising a child with a broken mother and an abusive father.
