Detaching from an abusive christian spouse

She also it seems has learned to detach from him in a healthy manner. An abuser will use every means possible to maintain control by making the victim feel worthless and totally dependent on him."She goes on to say. She speaks about a experience that she recently had with her husband. It was a story of what some may call detaching from emotional abuse her husband was dishes out at family gathering. "Fine. I hope you have a way home. Actually, don't bother coming home because all your stuff will be in the street if you ever show up. I'm done with you." then he proceeded to stomp off to the car where he sat the rest of the time we were there. How many can relate to hearing this type of verbal abuse at home? Sadly, I think way to many! Normally you hear others being told to ask themselves if they might have done something to offend their spouse when t...

"You Ask...I Answer" - What Role Does A Spouse Play in Going Solo?
2008-05-29 10:23:00 Question: Let me start by introducing myself to you. I am a paralegal student. I love your weblog and it has truly been a source of inspiration to me. My husband is an attorney. I came to the United States as a student from India, completed my Masters in Computer Sciences, worked for roughly 2 years in the software industry until last fall and now I am enrolled in the paralegal program due to a keen interest in law and thanks to my husband's encouragement that I could potentially be a lawyer myself. We got married last year. He moved to my part of the country to be with me while I finish my paralegal degree, but now we intend to move back where he is from and hang a shingle. I come from a family of entrepreneurs and the idea of a solo practice is very appealing to me as well (my aunt in India has been a succesful solo practitioner for many years). I am also currently doing some IT-related work as I finish my paralegal certificate program part-time. However we hope to be able to ...

Military Spouse Appreciation Day
2008-05-08 15:02:00 I have to start off this blog with a funny story (well some may not see it that way but hey we all have a different funny bone). While living in the Puget Sound area we had the privilege of hosting an international visit from a Scandinavian country's military leadership at McChord Air Force Base. The visitors included the spouse of their equivalent to our Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and my military spouse (who had a full time job and had to take time off) acted as her hostess. They watched the Air Force falcon birds perform on the flightline, visited the child care centers and other interest areas during the day. During one of their conversations the General's spouse stated that she received a stipend for being a military spouse when required to attend events. She was being paid to travel and at home during "official events" she also received a salary! Later during dinner at the Space Needle my lovely bride turned to me and said how much did I think she should be paid for h...

The Blog and The Spouse - In Our House!
2008-04-29 09:07:00 This past weekend, I did a post and found out that there may be some REAL issues with Blogging and Spouses! Not mine of course, well... there have been days....LOL! In light of a somewhat humorous post I put up on Saturday, I wanted to follow-up with what really happened this past weekend. When I wrote the post "Mama Says NO BLOGGING," it was somewhat of a joke, but the reality was, my wife wanted me off the work computer, and in the recording studio to finish one of her songs. It's been an ongoing project for the past couple weeks. Music, it's our other "shared" passion! In the past, I have always written the music, and she does a great job writing the lyrics and performing the songs. This time, she has written the entire song herself. She finally got me away from the computer long enough this weekend to produce this Video.

Is your spouse like this?
2008-04-25 19:38:00 I need to put a little vent out in the universe. I?ve been with my husband for almost 10 years. To this day the man cannot open the dishwasher door and load dirty dishes. He will rinse them (usually) and then place them on the counter on top of the dishwasher. He gets annoyed when I drop hints like ?Oh? so close?. He knows what I am talking about.One day I asked him why. A simple question. Is he acting out his inner child and he is defying my requests to act his age? Okay, I didn?t actually say that to him. I just said, ?Why didn?t you put your dirty dishes in the dishwasher??. His reply sounded reasonable, ?I didn?t know if the dishes in the dishwasher were clean or dirty?. Yeah, he was feeling pretty darn confident until I opened the dishwasher door revealing it was EMPTY. He suddenly didn?t have much to say.So 10 years later I have basically given up. I get a little immature myself at times. I often look at them and consider leaving them there until he gets the hint. However afte...

Meeting your future spouse at work
2008-02-25 06:43:00 It's true what they say -- the best place to find your future mate is at work. And why not? You spend most of your time at work, hang out with people at work, get to observe them in all sorts of settings. I guess the skating world is not that different from the office environment. If your job is to skate, chances are, you'll find your future mate on the ice -- You're touring together, entering the same competitions, maybe sharing coaches and choreographers and traveling in the same circles. What could be more natural than falling for someone in that context? In honor of Valentine's Day, the February issue of SKATING magazine profiled two couples who started as partners on the ice, and became husband and wife. Ice dancers Jennifer Wester and Daniil Barantsev (see above) fell in love while training together in Hartford, Connecticut. They were married three years later on May 6, 2006. After the 2010 Olympics, the pair said that they will likely put their competitive skating aside ...

Especially in our marriage.I see myself as the "fun" spouse -- the one that makes jokes and has a good time and says things like "Let's use our tax refund to plan a trip to Florida for next Christmas."Sweetie, on the other hand, is the "serious" spouse -- the one that doesn't get my jokes even though they are hilarious, the one who makes sure that we have vegetables at meals, and says things like "Maybe you shouldn't have booked a discount package that we can't get a refund on when you realize that you've planned a trip that includes twin 1-year-olds who are not likely to have a good time at Disneyworld."Sweetie also says things like "I can't believe it cost an extra $1,000 to switch those tickets."

Seeing your spouse negatively over time can be positive
2008-02-06 09:26:00 Viewing spouses more negatively over time may not be all that bad, in fact, it is positive, says a University of Michigan researcher. According to Kira Birditt, a research fellow at the U-M Institute for Social Research (ISR), negativity is a normal aspect of close relationships that include a great deal of daily contact, which is good for a relationship. “As we age, and become closer and more comfortable with one another, it could be that we’re more able to express ourselves to each other,” Birditt said. In the study, the research team looked at individual changes over time and also at differences among people at different stages in life— young, middle-aged and older adults. The volunteers were interviewed first in 1992 and again in 2005. They were asked about the negativity of their relationships with three key people in their lives: their spouse or partner, a child, and a best friend. Specifically, they rated the ...
