P acPP acYou are making perfect sense Mystic, and my heart goes out to all of you.PP acMy husband was physicaly abusive at the beginning of out marriage. I told him if he ever hit me again, he'd better never ever go to sleep. After that it was many years of mental, emotionaland verbal abuse, except when he was sober. They are always sorry after the fact! Abuse is a vicious circle, and the invisable kind leaves the worst scars.BRI finally left when he started stalking me. That was frightening. He claimed to love me, but when I divorced him it didn't take him long to remarry. Now he has a big dark woman (who I really like) and who I bet will bode no nonsense. Guess he was just emotionally dependant on me.BRLove to you and your family, and of course my prayers are with you all. There is a long road ahead, but life on the other side.
