I’m wondering how do you identify if you are in an emotionally abusive relationship? What are some key signs? Heading into my 6th year of marriage with a woman who has stopped loving me is what it feels like. For the past two years it seems like I’ve been loving an empty vessel, a woman who isn’t interested in returning any kind of emotional or physical affection, any kind of intimacy or communication besides light hearted day to day banter. Just extremely closed off for the last 18 months at least and no sign of opening up which seems to have put us on a course for divorce as I’m not sure how much longer I can keep giving and giving with nothing from her. I don’t know if this is considered emotional abuse or something else.
