Scared of My Spouse
E156 Apr 9, 2013 60m TV-PG
Sue says her husband of 12 years, Andy, is verbally abusive and that she’s so scared of him, she remains submissive — including getting drunk and having sex with him — to keep the peace. She says, “If he’s going to kill me, he’s going to kill me. I feel like I’m already dead.” So, why is she worried that Andy will leave her? Andy admits that he can be a bully, loses his temper and calls Sue vile names, but he says the duties of a wife are to have sex, cook and clean — and Sue doesn't carry her weight around the house. After breaking up numerous times, why do they keep reuniting? And, hear from Sue’s two adult children.
