You didn’t make him this way. A controlling or abusive man lives out his own script, and the woman he’s involved with has nothing to do with it, believe it or not. The exact same behaviors emerge from him regardless of the woman—unless it’s ...more

“The central attitudes driving the Water Torturer are:
You are crazy. You fly off the handle over nothing.
I can easily convince other people that you’re the one who is messed up.
As long as I’m calm, you can’t call anything I do abusive, no matter how cruel.
I know exactly how to get under your skin.”

“The central attitudes driving the Terrorist are:
You have no right to defy me or leave me. Your life is in my hands.
Women are evil and have to be kept terrorized to prevent that evil from coming forth.
I would rather die than accept your right to independence.
The children are one of the best tools I can use to make you fearful.
Seeing you terrified is exciting and satisfying.”
Lundy Bancroft, Why Does He Do That? Inside the Minds of Angry and Controlling Men

“How fitting, that the most terrifying time in my life should require me to do what I do best: escape into a book.”
Alix E. Harrow, The Ten Thousand Doors of January

“The central attitudes driving the Demand Man are:
It’s your job to do things for me, including taking care of my responsibilities if I drop the ball on them. If I’m unhappy about
any aspect of my life, whether it has to do with our relationship or not, it’s your fault.
You should not place demands on me at all. You should be grateful for whatever I choose to give.
I am above criticism.
I am a very loving and giving partner. You’re lucky to have me.”
Lundy Bancroft, Why Does He Do That? Inside the Minds of Angry and Controlling Men
