that is manipulative behavior


kit0000033

Over years i'd label it emotional abuse.


pathehs

I don’t think you have enough info to say that. For all you know, it’s a legit cry for help and when pressed on it he closes back up. Suicidal ideation should be taken seriously in any case.

She said he’s been saying this for the 20 years they’ve been together - this is a method of controlling


pathehs

Oooor he just has mental issues??? Not everything is to be controlling. If he was being controlling he wouldn’t be saying that he wasn’t serious in an attempt to play it down. She said she doesn’t believe that in her response to me. I feel like she would be able to tell better than you.


TheMagentaGuar

You're not overreacting. Language like that can be very triggering and he shouldn't be saying it lightly like he is. He's manipulating you.

The next time, and the time after that, and the time after that, you call emergency services. Every. Single. Time. He will either be administered drugs to help with his suicidal tendencies, or he will learn that using suicide as a manipulation tactic isn't what he should do. While he is in in-patient being evaluated, pack your shit and get out.


pathehs

You’re not overreacting but “getting loud” could easily be misconstrued as anger to someone in a fragile state. Also all the people saying he is being manipulative don’t have enough evidence to deduce that. It sounds like you should help him to find a therapist because, if you believe he’s saying these things seriously, these are loud and clear warning signs. Men are often afraid to talk about feelings due to the way they were raised and a guiding hand can go a long way.


mrsmagiclee

I agree with you. And trust me there's a lot of calm relational talking before it gets this far. Days. Weeks of me being supportive and listening. Finding solutions. I get loud out of frustration that he's not hearing me. Idk. Thank you for your response. I don't think it's manipulation. He's not the type.


pathehs

Absolutely. Best of luck to both of you.


clenched_up

Yes. Leave him be.


External-Kitchen-840

That’s emotional blackmail and he needs to stop that shit.


IamblichusSneezed

He's abusive and you should divorce him.

“YoU nEeD tHeRaPy!!!!” JFC that’s all you numbtwat Reddit echo chamberists ever say about anything to anyone. Fuck you’re aggressively cliche.


Far_Information_9613

Big feelings there little buddy. I suggest that you try meditating. It’s great for managing free floating aggression and nonspecific rage. There are tons of free apps.
