My ex was mentally abusive... among other things. When he felt bad about everything he was doing, he would make me feel worse to make what he was doing okay. At least in his mind.
Mid fifties, married thirty years. My husband has sweetly asked me to try to outlive him, because he doesn't want to face life alone.
His odds are pretty good. Both our mothers (still living!) outlived our fathers. And our grandmothers...
