how do you know if your spouse is being truthful when he tells you that this is the last time an event (mental/physical abuse) will happen to you? It appears that we have alot of the same issues (problems) over and over............i'm so tired of it want happen again........so when do i believe him, well now he's wanting counseling (something i could never get him to do in the past)...........i'm really confused on what to do?
