A 35-year-old man has opened up about the heartbreaking reality of his marriage, revealing how love, fear, and dependency have trapped him in a deeply abusive relationship.
According to him, he married his 26-year-old wife about three years ago. Coming from a poor background and having lost both parents early in life, he found comfort and acceptance in his wife’s wealthy family. His father-in-law, a successful businessman, gifted them a piece of land where they built their home. Even the shop he currently manages was opened for him by his wife before their marriage.
Everything seemed perfect—until the birth of their first child.
“I Do Everything… Even the Baby Duties Alone”
He narrated how life gradually changed once their daughter arrived. His wife insists he handles almost all the baby responsibilities whenever he returns home from work. From cleaning the baby to changing diapers, making bottles, and tidying the room, he barely gets time for himself.
He says he hasn’t watched his favorite sports programs in peace and is no longer allowed to hang out with his friends. Instead, he must stay home every night watching novellas and long soap operas with her.
According to him, his wife dictates everything in their home—meal times, schedules, and even intimacy.
> “It’s like I don’t have a mind of my own. I’m being used like a remote control.”
Despite all of this, he admits he has no resentment because he loves her deeply and fears losing her.
“Since Her Father Gave Her a New Car, My Life Has Become Worse”
The turning point, he says, came after her father gifted her a new car. That was when the emotional control turned into physical assault.
He reveals that his wife now forces him to wash her car and frequently yells at him. On several occasions, she has physically attacked him—with one incident landing him in the hospital. He still carries scars on his back from that night.
Now, he says, he lives in constant fear.
> “My wife now terrorizes me. Whenever I see her, I feel a wave of panic wash over me.”
“Leaving Isn’t an Option… I Love Her Too Much”
Though he recognizes how toxic the marriage has become, the anonymous storyteller says leaving is almost impossible for him. His wife has threatened to take back the shop and throw him out of the house—both of which were provided by her family.
He fears starting life from scratch again. More importantly, he doesn't want a broken home for the sake of their daughter.
> “We already have a child. I don’t want a broken home. Above all, I sincerely love this woman.”
A Cry for Help
The man is now seeking advice on how to fix the situation, admitting he is stuck between love and fear, devotion and survival. His story highlights a side of domestic abuse that is often ignored—men suffering in silence, afraid to speak out because society expects them to “endure.”
