He’s Verbally Abusive

Hi Aunty Eya.  
I need advice. Bin datin dis guy. Kind of long distance. We had a fight. But we’ve resolved it. I don’t know why I feel empty. Feel like I am not
loved by him even though he claims 2. But he says hurtful things.

 Let me just say he’s verbally abusive. N wen he starts 2 “misbehave” I just ignore him. N wen his head comes down, he apologizes. Am crazy about him and all but I feel EMPTY deep inside. I don’t know why. I cry my eyes out whenever I feel this way. 

Does any1 know what I can do 2 make this emptiness go away?

  1. Sister my thinking is that you are on the wrong side of relationship. first you must be sure you are not getting on his nerves by doing nasty this, no man loves to be disrespected. but if you respect your guy and submit to him yet he still abuse you verbally, its a sign he will abuse you physically when you get married to him.

  2. Do you think this is the type of relationship u deserve?
    Is he the type of man u desire?
    Has it ever occured to u that he maybe violent,if not for the distance between the both of you?
    your guess is as good as mine.

  4. When you don’t feel loved, you’re probably not…
    Your feeling empty could either be due to the fact that you have been used or you are being disrespected – you’ve been taken undue advantage of.
    Find a way out of this relationship as quick as possible and take learnings from it. God will give you someone who will appreciate & respect you.

  10. And he's just a boyfren? So what are you still doing with him? I hope you know he isn't going to change? And I hope you know that you are damaging yourself by allowing him treat you this way? I hope you know he will be worse in marriage?

    Please, he didn't create you and he didn't give birth to you or give you your life. So, why are you allowing him to have this whole authority to treat you however he wants? To be in a relationship with just anyone isn't by force. You won't die if you leave him. I won't even preach that it's what you do that causes it, because some men just like being abusive. Mostly when they see the girl doesn't really know who she is and she doesn't know her worth. It's nothing about you changing your attitude except you want to become more like a 'mumu'.

    If you knew your worth, you'd have taken a walk a long time ago. Appreciate yourself, love yourself, work on yourself, get close to the lover of your soul (God) and you will see that there are so many beautiful men out there that will treat you right. Free yourself abeg. Know your worth.

    And PLEASE, stop giving excuses for him cos I see you doing a lot of "he's a nice guy, his tongue just needs to be tamed". Ask women who have endured abuses. That's how they kept on giving excuses for the guy and hoping that he would change. Don't worry, na from clap dem dey enter dance.

  11. Please there's nothing nice about this guy, if you ignore this "red light" i pray you don't get married and be praying to be single again. if you love yourself please flee to the mountain and don't look back.

  14. Get a grip already! Trust me, that dude has one babe somewhere that he respects. You are going up and down giving excuses for him? Verbal abuse is worse than a python bite… Ve been there sweetie, walked out with my head high and the guy was begging me with tears. LOL. Today, I'm proud i did cos I'm so much happier!

  15. If he is nice why asking for our opinion. He is nice yet you feel empty. People with experience dey advise u, u ar stil singing his praises, if u dey work my kind of work, u no go fit think of a man dat is abusive. You ar loving him now bcos he is stil verbal by d time it will manifest to physical and action, no b person go tell mad man say war don start.
    If u love yrself u better end it, and focuse on better and profitable thing b4 it is too late.

  16. Its d verbal abuse dat has killed ur spirit. Verbal abuse has neva been good 4 anyone's self esteem. U keep quiet when he abuses u but hv u tot of wat wld happen d day he will say smth u cant bear & u talk back. He will graduate 2 physical abuse & of course he will apologise after pounding u. My dear when u r in love wit some1 & d person loves u in return, u r not supposed 2 feel empty. U need 2 leave his abusive arse cos u cant change him. U'll find some1 who will fill dat space wit love.
    YUCEE.

  17. Abeg oh submission wetin? You guys are still dating or is it courting and you are already submitting?

    As far as I'm concerned, the only time the Bible talks about submission is in the area of marriage-"WIVES submit to your HUSBAND…" I didn't see GIRLFRIEND submit to your BOYFRIEND.

    Na wa for the kain advice person dey read so. As far as I'm concerned, when a man and a woman are dating/courting, they are operating at the same wavelength but once marriage comes into play, it's a whole different ball game!

  21. You won't regret this decision…, and there's nothing wrong with being single (that's what u are when not married!). Get busy and the right guy will come – sooner than you expect.

  22. My dear snc u said u'v given him a break n it worked bt went bk 2 it again den I shud u shud use ur tongue 2 count ur teeth. I dnt knw abt u bt 4 me,d reason y I go in2 any relationship is 2 find a frnd,a brother,sm1 I can play wit,tink of @ anytym tym of d day n smile knwing dat I'm hapi wit such a person. In ur case,wen u tink of him u feel sad ryt? So d aim of being in a relationship is defeated. So babe use ur own hand advice yasef. On anoda note,if a man truly loves u,he'l neva say a single bad word 2 u,he wnt even tink of it cos he loves u. Iv been in a relationship for over a year nw n iv neva heard my man say 2 me dat I'm stupid,its nt lyk we dnt hv issues,we do bt we neva insult eachoda. Oh babe u deserve 2 b hapi ok?. All d best darlyn.
