This is not my usual post. But it’s something I had to share. As you read this, imagine how your reaction would differ if this story were being told by a woman, talking about how her husband treated her.
I have been separated from my wife for over a year, though we continue to share a house. We live on separate floors. We share the house because we need to parent our son together, and because we can’t afford to maintain two households.
I’d like to tell you a story, illustrating one reason why I am divorcing her. This is an example of the treatment I have received over the past fourteen years.
This evening, while she was drinking her wine, my estranged wife took exception to the fact that I wanted to talk about how tense she’s been. She said she didn’t want to talk about it.
I left the room (so as to comply with her request).
I went upstairs to use our tiny guest bathroom. She began to yell and throw things around the kitchen, then eventually charged up the stairs and into the bathroom, just as I was finishing and getting ready to leave. She confronted me there, holding her half-full wine glass in her hand. Her voice got louder, her gestures wilder.
She complained that I had upset her by wanting to talk when she had told me she didn’t want to talk. As I began to feel uncomfortable, I said, “You’re saying it’s my fault you can’t express your emotions responsibly like an adult?”
She said, “Yes!! It’s because you want to go off and take a vacation with your girlfriend!” Then she threw the contents of her glass in my face and smashed it against my bare chest.
The results are pictured here.
I stood there, with shattered glass at my feet, glass shards sticking in my skin, bleeding, for five minutes or so. I asked her to move so that I could leave. She waved the broken stem of the glass in the air and said, “Leave!! Who’s stopping you?”
I told her she was standing between me and the door. I felt threatened.
She laughed and said, “You’re 6 foot 3 and 250 pounds! You can’t feel threatened by me!”
I said, “You just broke a glass on my chest and cut me. You’re standing there with the stem in your hands. Yes. I feel threatened.
She said, “No, you don’t.”
I asked her to move out of the way and let me pass. I didn’t want her to think I was pushing her or threatening her.
She held her ground, waved the broken stem and shouted, “Go on! Leave! I’m not stopping you!”
After I asked her repeatedly, she finally moved a bit and I left, carefully stepping over the broken glass.
I have posted this here as evidence, and to help those who may think that size and gender make a difference when abuse is concerned. People who, like my estranged, think some have permission to feel threatened and some don’t.
Abusers come in all sizes and genders.
She and I went to a half dozen therapists over the years. At each initial session, every therapist took a look at me, then at her (5’4” 150 lbs.). Then he or she would gravely ask my wife, “Do you feel safe?”
None ever thought to ask me.
Thanks for listening.
Because this needs to be shared. Because abuse is wrong no matter what. Because this saddens my heart.
:(
honestly, fuck tumblr. if this was a woman this would be the only thing on my dash.
with that being said, fuck people who think that women are the only ones that can be abused in a relationship. and fuck crazy women, as well.
Fuck abuse. This should have the ten thousand notes that every women’s domestic abuse case has.
Regards,
IIF
I’m glad to see something like this on my dashboard finally. Not the fact that he got abused by his wife, but to show that not only women are victims of abuse (like so many women claim). It’s a shame that so many stupid people out there think -and defend- only women when it comes to abuse and not men.
Bitch exwife is a bitch.
Idiots on tumblr should stop being so fucking sexist against men. Abuse can happen to them too.
It’s really saying something when a man who’s taller and weighs more than a woman, feels threatened by said woman.
Fuck you and your wine glass!
Well, I’d be fine reblogging this just in support of the guy, but why does this have to call out women and hint against feminists? Pretty much any feminist would be against abuse by and to anyone. Those therapists who immediately believed that the woman must be the one being abused because she’s smaller? That’s misogyny. That’s forwarding the idea that a woman could never take on the superior force of a man. It’s part of the patriarchy that feminists want to deconstruct. It’s GENDER ROLES. A therapist believing that just because there is physical abuse going on that it must be against the woman (you know, because that’s the way it works) either A) is mentally referencing the fact that men are more often the victims of psychological and emotional abuse, or B) someone reinforcing a misogynist mindset.
Also, abuse does not necessarily indicate sexism. If that were the case, I’d love for someone to explain to me how domestic violence in homosexual couples works. Abuse stems from a lot of factors, and while extremely fucking terrible, may or may not have to do with gender conflict.
But yeah, those evil biased women you’re bitching out? A lot of them would actually be on this guy’s side.
And I’m one of those horrible evil women. I know a lot of psycho cunts who are completely capable of doing this to a man, and I know a lot of guys that this would probably happen to because they have a history of psycho cunt gf’s.
I feel so sorry for this guy. I hope his message gets out there, and inspires more men to shrug their pride and admit that this has happened to them, too.
Fuq u gais. I have to use my phone for tumblr. I dont have this convenience.What the figgity fuck fuck that’s cool! :O
... I love my france.
France: So how long am I pregnant for?Me: IDK... I guess you're pregnant for as long as pregnancy lasts... except sped up on internet time..
