writes: Help!! My husband is delusional from day one of out marriage. He is very strong, arrogant and refuses to listen anything negative about himself. He keeps talking about the past and always brings examples from the past and emotionally abuses me. His delusion is prosecutory type - has all the symptoms. It is very difficult to talk to him and make him realize leave alone sending him for treatment. I have decided to stay in this marriage but going to stay "away" from him (works in a different city). Already going thro' midlife crisis emotionally and physically. He has and is suspecting me with various males and refuses to believe that I have not flirted with anyone after marriage. Even a mere handshake with another male kicks his thought process and becomes very emotionally abusive.Any help will be great.Thanks.

reader, anonymous, writes (24 November 2012): This is verified as being by the original poster of the questionSomehow I am not able to accept the word "divorce". Brought up in a very strong culture and feel extremely bad facing society as a divorcee. He has been bad for the past two decades, but worse, for the past 4 years. I am really worried he will land up in doing something stupid, which will create a "bad" name for our family. I really don't know - but I am lost. He is in different city - because of job - calls me when he needs emotional support. Does a lot of so called "relationship" over the net and feels great about it. He needs help and just don't know how to make him accept that he has problem and go for some help.

I agree with SVC - I don't see what you are asking.
And I seriously don't understand why you think staying married will FIX anything, you are in lack of a better description sticking your head in the sand by working in another city.
Why stay? What do YOU get out of being married to him?

you've decided to stay in the marriage (not sure why you think this is the best option but ok)
you live apart (all the time or just during the week?)
what kind of help do you seek from us? it's not clear from your question what you want help with since you've decided to stay married to an abusive man, that you already don't live with.
