As your partner control your life, your self-esteem and confidence level decreases gradually and the relationship problems magnify. At first, you react on his insults and assaults. However, every time you do so, your husband turns into a monster and the relationship problems worsen.
Another thing is that you become afraid to tell your friends and family about your situation. The truth is that they are the only ones that you can rely to and you try to push the important people in your life. When you push them too far you will realize you will be alone in dealing with your problems. Now you are spending your life in dark ages with your partner who has totally become a different person.
It is typical to have this kind of situation in a married couple. You and your partner have personality differences and there would always be adjustments. It is a crazy idea to trap women in the house and limit them to child-bearing and household chores. Most women suffer just to make sure they please their man. What happens is when they found out that there is nothing they could do to please their man, problems arise and it could go worse in time.
Hence, the best and most logical solution for your relationship problems is not to please him always, rather to assert yourself in your relationship. Do not spoil your husband or get him used to your submissiveness. Pleasing your husband only makes him feel more powerful. You are allowing him to have power over you. Your relationship problems would not end unless you have courage to say you had enough. The longer you wait for your husband to change for the better, the longer you will be at risk to emotional abuse.
Assertiveness comes out if you try to separate your emotions to the reality. Do not allow your partner to take advantage of your love for him. You got to be courageous to fight for your will so you can be yourself and live your life as you want it. If your partner loves you truthfully he will just either reject or accept you.
