In reply to Emotional Abuse, posted by sienna on March 9, 2004, at 18:12:40
i live in a home where my only companion in the world stares at a computer screen whenever i speak, even if it's only to ask, 'when would you like your dinner,' and regularly leaves the room while i'm still speaking or interrupts me in the middle of a sentence. apologies do come occasionally (when it gets extra bad), but the effects are devastating and cumulative. it makes me feel subhuman.
i do think this is crappy treatment, if not emotional abuse, but i don't have the power or leverage to make it stop.
