He sounds like a DEEPLY wounded man and she comes off like a woman in charge. Nobody rants like that bec. they're angry. They rant like that when they're hurt. Listen to him. I feel bad for him! Hate that he hit her, but Blake killed his wife.

Oksana, many many women have been on the same road as you and you are not alone. An abuser is an abuser is an abuser. These men learn to hate on women early in life and they refuse to grow up.
