I want to thank you and others who have written telling me what I already knew, but didn't want to admit to myself, that my wife has been emotionally abusing me. I am in a bad marriage, one that I should leave. I'll need a good lawyer and good advice from other folks so that I don't fall prey to her abuse in the (rather likely) event of divorce.
I am so glad I found this forum.
Peace,
