“Okay, then I’ll never ___ again”

Coming to terms with the emotional abuse I’ve endured for almost a year now. I’m wondering if anyone else has ever experienced this;

  • when asking for my needs to be met, like being held for a bit after intimacy: “this makes me never want to be intimate with you again. Okay, I’ll just never sleep with you again”

  • “okay, ill just stop staying over here”

  • when I express that a joke hurt my feelings: “okay, I’ll just never joke with you again”

I’ve been in therapy for years so I KNOW I express my needs kindly using “i statements” and never blame. Ugh.

EDIT: I am planning to leave this man. I finally opened up to my therapist about what had been going on. The final straw was catching HIM in a lie and being told he only lied because I overreact. Lol. (As he screamed at me and threw stuff around my room)
