Communication

Hi Rev. Lee, hope you can help. I have tried numerous ways with no success to get my husband to open up to me. The only communication we have is when we fight. When he gets angry his rage turns into finding a way to get back at me. Revenge seems to get the best of him. He is angry most of the time. I feel the reason I stay in this marriage is only for financial reasons and that is what scares me. I have selfcontrol, am very passive, always saying please and thank you, and this I think he takes advantage of. I dont like to say anything to disagree with him just so we wont argue. We live like roommates and this does not seem to bother him. I know that if money were not an issue, I'd probably leave. Any advice

Response to "Communication"
by: Lee Baucom

In the last question, "Seperation," the writer was clear she had been in an abusive relationship.

You are caught in a controlling relationship that has the potential for becoming abusive. I would urge you to find a counselor for yourself that can help you sort through this and decide how bad the situation really is. Many times, when we are too close to the situation, we lose track of how bad things get. You need an impartial person to help you sort this out.

The truth is, you are not responsible for getting your husband to open up. He is using his anger and his avoidance to keep you at a distance and to control the situation. Find some outside counsel for yourself to help you decide what you need to do.
