Relationship expert, Blessing CEO has shared her experience of the abuse she suffered when she was married. She stated that her ex told her that he abused her because she was stubborn and she believed it to be true. Blessing CEO also stated that her ex always apologized to her as he claimed to love her.
“I endured a lot in my marriage and there was no one for me to run to. Whenever my ex-husband abuses me, he would tell me that he is sorry. He always apologizes and tells me that he doesn’t know what got into him.
He once told me that he used to abuse me because I was very stubborn. He told me that he was abusing me because he loves me and wants to train me. At some point, I started seeing the abuse as part of love. I also believed that I was stubborn.
I once went to his office and saw his female junior colleague insulting him. I was surprised that my ex did not react to the insult and I asked him that he can be calm when a lady is talking. That was when I understood the difference between endurance and tolerance.”
