He is a great man, but she treats him like crap on a daily basis.
She has even threatened him that if he tries to divorce her, that she will take their daughter away from him per a judge's ruling because he has no way of proving that she is incapable of taking care of their child.
It's just horrific what my friend has to go through.
The mental/emotional abuse she inflicts on him is nasty business.
So that means that it’s the woman’s fault EVERY time, right?
Secret recordings via a laptop built in mic might be useful!
Some (a lot) women are psycho. More so than men. Men psychos are more violent and therefore more easily spotted and avoided. Psycho women play all sweet, then turn when they get what they want. They hold their men hostage with the children or whatever leverage they have.
I don’t know how you are supposed to tell the difference. I fear for my son. He’s only twelve, but still...
We are trying to teach our daughter not to be a psycho beeyatch. She’s only eight, so we have a ways to go. She is a very sweet little girl, but can be a drama queen. Those episodes only last for a minute or two, and then she apologizes.
Your good friend needs to divorce his wife the minute the daughter is out of the house and gone.
I would encourage this guy to tape the wife and build up evidence of her abuse. Archive it for storage and build it up. Olympus has some awesome small digital recorders I carry with me when I go out on errands and what’s cool about them is that the memory section detaches and connects into a USB drive on your computer. From there you can archive it (they are stored as .avi files).
Sorry, Charlie, but your friend doesn't "have" to go through anything. He's as sick as she is!
