• You don’t seem to know the difference between “difficult to deal with” and “abuse,” or there’s something else going on in your relationship beyond them just not trusting you easily. A difficulty or inability to managing emotions is also a symptom of certain traumas like PTSD so putting the onus on someone you know has this difficulty like that is in really poor taste and shows a lack of understanding.

      No one is responsible for your reaction to your emotions except for yourself. If your issues cause you to treat your partner poorly, it’s on you to address them.

      Like I said at the beginning, having a reason for mistreating your partner doesn’t make it acceptable.
