Sorry you had an abusive ex... It's sadly very common. Who cares what your parents think? You know what's best for you.
Is it me or are there a lot of posts about manipulative, controlling parents?
And let's be honest, most parents are both manipulative and controlling. Some just go a little too far.
you're lucky you didn't obtain their logic while being raised.
Abuse people & psychopaths can have a high level of charm. They can use natural likeablity to to get away with murder. Your parents have bad instincts. Good for you, choosing a nice husband.
They may have not known the extent of the damage your ex did to you, even if you told them. Only you can decide who's right for you!
your parents are inconsiderate *****..FYL op.
Doesn't matter what they think, he's not married to them.
Good on you for leaving that relationship in the first place and good on you again for finding someone to marry. I'm sure your parents will come around when they see how happy you are. :)
well your parents might need their visions check if they can't see what's best for you

Good thing that it's your decision and not theirs. As long as you're happy, I'm sure they'll come around.
Unfortunately, people who abuse their SO's are typically very charming and manipulative to everyone around them. If your husband makes you happy, they will be fine. But your husband does not have to prove himself to them, as marriage was a decision between you and him :)
