“How do I stop my partners emotional bullying from affecting me?”
Read the answers at experienceproject.com - I didn’t find one that suited me. But this is what I would tell anyone who asked me that question:
“YOU CAN NOT FIX HIM !! NO MATTER HOW MUCH CRAP YOU TAKE FROM HIM WILL NOT MAKE HIM BETTER…If you are broken you cannot do what you were meant to do with your life.” ~tinyhottie
So why am I reluctant to take “my own” advice?

I’m not sure what your answer to your question would be, but mine is: Because I want it to stop. Because I want better. Because I want him to be better. Because I miss the man I fell in love with. Because I don’t want to hurt anymore.

I think my answer starts with “Because I want him to be better.” I know that leaving him does not solve the problem at all. Because of the children, I will be a part of my husband’s life until death.
The boys will want both of us as a part of their lives forever, until we die. Graduations, marriages, birthdays, holidays, their childrens’ lives…all of those things require FAMILY. All of those things require contact.
Leaving my husband doesn’t end anything, and it certainly doesn’t “fix” him or me.
I don’t want to hurt anymore, either, RandomlyK. I’m not sure that leaving the marriage would make “not hurting” any more possible than staying in it.
I’m not sure that us staying, “fixing” and “healing” myself, him and our marriage will result in regaining the love I had for him or even cause me to love him like I want to love him.
I wish he would call. I wish he was actively involved in our marriage. I wish I could trust him to WANT to fix his part of the problem.
I don’t want to hurt anymore either, but it seems that whether I leave or stay, there is going to be pain. I am going to have to learn to deal with pain in order to be able to feel joy.
