I read an interesting newsletter/article that one woman wrote that really defined the characteristics of abusers well. Her family fell victim to domestic violence by her husband who she characterized as a "covert" abuser. She writes,
"They say one thing with their mouth and appear to be loving and kind, but their actions are controlling and conveying the message that you are stupid and worth nothing in their sight. They manipulate to get their way by getting people to feel sorry for them, making people feel guilty, etc."
"To get people to do this, he must manipulate their feelings and get them to believe that he has been unjustly wronged."
There are 2 types of abusive men.
If you are interested in know which kind of abusive person you are....or for victims of abuse...which one you were either married to or dated, please click on the link below.
