Come onnnnn Myrtle. You’ve been married to this guy for how long?? So he wants a little nooky, and instead of saying no, you kill him?? Mental abuse?? Why not just leave his a**? Mental abuse is a good reason to leave your husband, NOT kill him.

OHHH Shauncey. How could you be so blind? You obviously don’t understand the cycle of abuse and how a victim is distorted by the abuse. I am a distant family member and know a little about the situation. You would be better off leaving your caustic remarks at the door and consider being humble enough to know that you really don’t know. I agree it’s hard to understand why a person doesn’t leave, but I’ve never been in a situation of being physically and emotionally controlled by someone who was mentally ill himself. (His father tried to shoot and kill him as a child after killing his brother but he escaped by hiding in a loft. His father then killed himself.) Paul was quite disturbed. We would all be better off to practice some compassion and deal with our own close relationships (if they’re healthy) with gratitude and thankfullness. And leave these poor people alone. They’ve suffered more than you can imagine!
