Why I think he is emotionally abusive:

  1. He doesn’t translate everything as he should and only translates in a manner that suits his situation and needs.

  2. Omits essential information all the time.

  3. Right before the wedding he decides to break up because she confided in her parents. But it’s okay when he does the same and turns everyone against her. Who runs to their mommy after there’s been a fight with a partner and talks shit about them to their entire family?

4.He always has to have the upper hand: Threatens to leave Kimberly or asks her to leave in every fight, Whenever he is asked to make a compromise - “Am I your servant?” “I’m not your servant” wth does that even mean?

  1. In effect he has entirely isolated her from his family and is trying to isolate her from her own family too.

  2. Straight up lied about the family situation and “wifely duties”.

  3. No safe space for Kimberly to go to, no one to confide in

Controlling someone in that manner and stripping away their identity bit by bit is absolutely not okay. I say this not because Kimberly is expected to make compromises, but because she is being expected to keep quiet about things that bother her and change the way she thinks. The situation is classic 101 guide in how to break someone’s spirit and make them complacent.

      Seriously.

      It’s like some people feel they are born to despise women.

      The way so many users demean Danielle is awkward af. Even while watch Yohan does the absolute worst. 😮‍💨

      Misogyny is very much alive and well. And women push that crass behavior too.

        Oh yeah it’s mostly women on here that are trashing Danielle and defending the way Johan has treated her. Their hatred for Danielle is disturbing. And they use her bankruptcy and financial problems to justify their hatred. Doesn’t make sense.

      It’s wild to me that people still defend him. He clearly hates her for not giving him a kush life. I would be more understanding if he said he would pay a proportionate share of rent based on his income. Instead he thinks he should pay nothing.

      Danielle telling him to keep his clothes at the apartment is one criticism I hear of her. If I paid for all that shit and he said I “never did anything for him”, I would also be like yeah you’re not taking it then if you can’t acknowledge my contribution or your life and things I’ve shared.

      I’ve been on to him from the start, as in way too “good” to be true.
