Gray area?

Hi Lonely1,

I think it would be very difficult for anyone who does not know you and your situation well to be able to give wise counsel to this question.  You are right about God's plan, and physical safety is always paramount.  I can't begin to suggest, though, where the line between the hurts that happen even in reasonably healthy relationships and emotional abuse that needs intervention is.

I trust that you are communicating any hurtful behavior to your H.  Does he listen and consider what you say, or does he minimize your feelings?  Is he making the exact same mistakes over and over, or having difficulty applying healthy principles to a multitude of situations?  I think some people are just really clueless about the effects of what comes out of their mouths.
