Is He Verbally Abusing Me?
Q. What is verbal abuse ? Is it calling your SO names? here is the definition I got :"Verbal abuse is a pattern of behavior that can seriously interfere with one's positive emotional development and, over time, can lead to significant detriment to one's self-esteem, emotional well-being, and physical state. It has been further described as an ongoing emotional environment organized by the abuser for the purposes of control." I think I'm being verbally abused by my boyfriend. He calls my retarded and say I'm a dumbass but that's sometimes how we joke around. But now I guess I'm getting on his nerves cause today he told me only to text him if I need something and that he doesn't need a text every 10 minutes. Sometimes I don't know what to do . Any advice ?
